Bad on me for assuming too much by your original post. But you are ready to rant
IF those thing happen? Got it. (It did however take 4 pages for you to paint a more accurate picture of
YOUR situation)
BTW....that 30 minutes that you might spend composing an email has been frittered away on this thread. But I thank you for taking one for the team in trying to rectify this systemic ALPA scheduling email time waster.
LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, Sheriff Buck Rogers.
I rarely post on the forum, but it's clear that you're the resident troll with zero contributions. The type of person that over time people will just skip over. I believe the Scheduling Help system is inadequate in comparison to systems we've had in the past. I've come to the forum to see if others feels the same. Seems to be a mixed bag of some who prefer the ability to talk to someone, some who are ok with the system, and others who really have nothing to say other than the typical internet hero posturing.
I've done what the majority of pilots do:
1) Phoned a friend
2) Read the contract
3) Called a scheduler
4) Reached out to ALPA Scheduling Help
But you see Sheriff, it's very unlikely this will be the last time I need scheduling help. So, while it's convenient for you to pretend this is about a single instance, deep down, I think you understand we're talking about the system going forward. I believe pilots want to be able to call and speak to someone who can help. And if ALPA decides to move ahead with polling the issue, you will probably see for yourself the overwhelming preference to return to that system.
