On most properties it would have to several instances of serious abuse and irresponsibility before the CPs even got involved and then it would be coaching. From what you guys are saying this sounds like 2 strikes you're out commuting and really the entire contract is a gray area for newhires. Do you guys actually see a lot of probies fired? Or is this just some sort of hazing/tough talk? Can scheduling just assign them anything too? Sounds like SkyWest.
3 people from my new hire class were terminated on probation.
