Got no calls for GS. Not a single pilot appeared on 23.M.7 list even though about 50 IA’s went out that day and GS coverage was flat out skipped. IA calls are now a race to see who can get ahold of scheduling first with no regards to seniority.
Follow up to my earlier post. As it turns out, I was likely caller #1 in responding to the IA for one of the two trips we were IAd today. It's just that when answered the phone after I was onl hold for 30 minutes, at the exact same moment where the scheduler picked up, CS assigned a short call reserve to the trip. Had I known the guy whose name appeared on the trip was on SC at the time, I would have asked about it. I wasn't aware they could do that.
