It is obvious they are not interested in working with the union and coming to a compromise. It will eventually end up in the hands of the pilot group to strike or not or to vote in a $hitty agreement.
On a side note, why F--- are we picking up open time? That is about the dumbest thing I've heard. Fly your schedule and nothing more.
Are you talking true Open Time, or Mission Modes? There are a few prolific MM'ers in SFB
I hear PIE is pretty good at refusing MMs! I have so few days off as it is that I never consider picking up OT as it is; especially at the shtty straight-time rate!! 'Usta-fly' paid premium for OT pick-up, & in 10 years I might have picked-up 2 or so trips. My time off is much more valuable to me!!
