Yeah you guys are right, the scheduling here is pretty poor I won't argue with that. I suppose the fact that I'm trying to work extra mitigates that frustration for me. As far as the "kool aid" I wouldn't go that far. I've definitely had a few days where I've wanted to punch a hole in the wall courtesy of good ol CS. I've also filed a couple of PICs already so I think I've seen the ugly side as well as the good. However, I've spent more than enough time in the past being a negative wretch about my work and allowing that to poison my attitude and make me miserable. I refuse to do that any longer.

I've been fortunate enough to fly mostly with guys that share my enthusiasm for being positive. So I'm reporting what I've seen. I also don't think a union is going to solve our problems as much as they will create new ones. But what do I know? I'm just a new guy
