I used to see the same guys beyotching about a one-day trip to Hawaii and back for 12 hours pay, that pops up. The most senior guy gets thinks it's going to go to SRM, because of no reserves, so he waits for it. Then a junior line holder does a straight pickup and this senior guy has the nerve to get all ****ed off. It was a 12 hour one-day for keeps sake - 12 hours! And this senior guy thinks it was his. Even had some of these guys calling the junior guy to ask why he picked it up, like it was his in the first place?! Same attitude like WorstPilotEver and SUX4U. Their monikers tell it like it is.

Then you have the guys that are commuters and can't SRM, and they want to be all high and mighty that those capable of getting them, are flight time *****s and greedy, etc.... Amazes me. They don't seem to get that's it's not only extra pay, but creates a better schedule for the person picking it up, especially for the reserve pilot, that gets a day or two restored to a better date(s). To each their own, but for those pilots thinking they can be brazen enough to denigrate another for their own gain, is appalling. I would like for any of these pilots to ever call me or speak to me in person about it. They would have a lovely reply!!
Oh brother! Would you please calm down and go back and read what I recently had to say on this matter and tell me if I really deserved to be singled out twice in your rant?

I made a point that all 50% trips don’t go 100%. I made a comment that I don’t like the lowest bidder auction that scheduling as been doing lately. Yes I do wish we all could tow the line with not accepting 50%, but that’s my opinion and it doesn’t matter to what works for another pilot.

I commented on working smarter and not harder. Finally I made a response regarding what reasons from this thread appear to be why we don’t have nothing but 100% pay and I also made a point about me getting a 100% trip due to waiting a few minutes all while being pretty junior in BES.

Yup totally belittling my fellow pilots. Perhaps if my screen name was BlessU, I wouldn’t have even been a blip on your belligerent radar. Get a grip man.
