They're worth more than many other bases, but you're working the full four days.
This is where we (sometimes) lose the public and the company (ie.. management)
If a 4 day has you showing up early (not able to commute) and getting done late (not able to commute), that sucks. I get it.
But what does it pay? Currently, the min would be 20 hours but should it pay 20 hrs or more like 24.. or higher?!
With today's aircraft order announcement, we better start looking what our UPA looks like in 2030, cause we could be operating under any next UPA at that point.
(Ask
ANYONE who Voted on UPA'12 if they thought that the UPA would still be in place 10+ years later)
All of a sudden, that 5:20 MPD doesn't actually sound like it's enough! {Yes, 5:20 is my min for any new agreement}
I am paid to work, I get it. But I also expect an Honest Contract that respects my skills while not destroying my body and brain while doing it...
