there also has to be an opportunity for self verification to slide any company triggers. that allows those legitimately sick to verify and not use any of their unverified sick hours. the unverified sick time needs to be alotted for the sickness's that arent doctor worthy and that could be self treated.

we can't allow the company to have a pressure trigger like what was in the TA, thats bs and simply a designed pressure point to make pilots anxious about reaching that 15 hours. Since you couldnt self verify until after the 15 days it was going to cause anxiety to those abusing the system as well as those legitimately sick. that was fubar
