No help after 12 months of talks, if a company doesn’t respect its employees to get a new contract by then, it’s game on.
We can disagree….if I fly with you I will call you out on it. We can discuss it then.
Actually, there's a HUGE difference between picking up OT when there's no furloughs, no authorized job action, and crossing the picket line. Again, SWAPA leadership specifically encourages the pilots to "pick up and build up your strike fund." It's been in multiple podcasts and communications from them. Actually, by someone picking up at straight and letting a reserve sit at home, you're actually kicking the company in the nuts because they see using reserves as a freebie that they already paid for and by having to award the flying to a straight bidder and pay them and the reserve, well... they kick a puppy every time a reserve pilot doesn't get used.
Feel free to call me out, I'll call you out, the drinks will be on me, and we can solve all sorts of world problems.
