I could even argue the ELS guys shouldn’t even pick up trips, but it’s the only way to make a few bucks for some and lines are being built well above 75.
Maybe this is off base as I’ve never been through a situation like this...but shouldn’t the union be communicating the rules of engagement for this situation, ie it is HIGHLY recommend to stick to 75 etc. ???
Isn't this and other quotes preaching of not picking up OT or threatening other's if they do the kind of thing that got Spirit pilots/Union threatened w/ a lawsuit for not adhering to the status quo? All management had to do was go read these forums, present it to a judge and get a lawsuit going.
