Overblock all month on ragged, long days with delays, weather and mechanicals, but then get in early on a couple transcons cause the winds were light? Hours and hours of pay, gone. *POOF**
Then under the ALK JCBA we went to block or better per leg. I've been tracking it since it changed, it's a 5-9% raise over the way the crooks were computing it before.
Don't sign this garbage contract, you guys and the industry deserve better. Way better.
