Well SkyWest technically did can me for one missed commute, but then “allowed me to resign”. I never missed a commute prior to that. Also, didn’t know they could use my sick calls that I’m lawfully meant to make if I’m not fit to fly an airplane against me in a situation where I gave myself not 1, not 2 but 4 initial flights to get to work.. I get what you’re saying but trust me, without a policy SkyWest can fire you for anything really, and that’s what the SAPA guys told me. The funniest thing is I was advised I should have just called in sick by multiple people, that’s a great culture to have at an airline... :/
Not trying to knock SkyWest at all, it was a solid place I thought but I will be happy to go the rest of my career without running into the guy that wanted to make an example of me
