Yeah, our scope is so great we have NJ painted G450s in QS tail numbers flying QS owners around with non-seniority list pilots. Pretty solid.
As for the video, it was pretty cringy. Jon is better than that, I'm surprised they even published it. When she talked about not getting deviations after failing to order food within an hour I couldn't help but laugh. Also the trouble getting days off on the 8/6, I don't get the outrage there. You know your schedule for a whole trimester, maybe don't schedule a girl's weekend when you're supposed to be working? Just a thought. And if she thinks they had opposite sleep schedules here, wait until he gets on with AA and they get different equipment, bases, and schedules. Weddings and true life events have never really been a problem here. Just an email to the ACP or CP usually gets it done. Then again, I don't consider video games to be a "life event" that requires a schedule change.
I understand the message they were trying to convey, but outside of our pilot group I don't see many getting behind that couple or the union that put them out there.
The union's strategy group needs to start coming up with strategy that will actually work, because pickets with 5-75 participants, mobile billboards, and mystery baseballs got us a concessionary "offer" that I wouldn't wipe with. I really hope you guys get something
really good in 2024. I'll be with you in spirit.
