This thread is about contract 2022.

The fact you spend most of your post doing precisely what you said in the first sentence you were not going to do says a lot.

I don't have hours every day to sit around and hawk iCrew looking at open time and the swap board. That's great you've made it a cottage industry in your life. Most of us don't.

Guess what, I can get weekedns off anytime I want via PBS, senior enough to do that all day long. Same for most holiday's (all or nothing type games). I've tried the swap.drop etc thing but whe you don't have enough folks that doesn't work. Besides most would rather hang for the GS. It's very convienient you are yet another one of us that seems to have trips others are willing to pick up on the swap board. Or you are staffed in your BES you can actually drop. Or maybe you bid reserve and fill it up, yes,we are all aware of strategies.

Our point here is that it should not take massive machinations, and a lot of luck, to be able to simply drop a trip when you need to without doing cheetah flips to get it done.

Our staffing is crap, the kompany runs rough shod over our PWA at will, and you come here to tell us we're ****ing lazy. Nice work hoss. Sure you enjoy the kindergarten level of verifying sick time too?

No, I want improvements for all of us across the board. That starts with staffing us properly. Keeping us flying OUR passengers, it then moves to making it a $$$$ as possible to RR us. and on and on as so many have pointed out here and in other threads. Our contract needs fixing. simple as that.
