Yesterday I get a call from CS (I'm off) and just assumed it was another IA call. Instead it was CS placing a line check trip, over 30 days out, on my schedule on one of my LC days. I'm guessing it's legal since it seems like they have carte blanche on anything training related? It's just a one day trip and pretty easy but still seems unusual. I of course have not acknowledged anything. Does this count as proper notification?
Training operates in its own separate world from scheduling and it’s complete BS. Scheduling rules and PWA stuff are complete afterthoughts to them. I had a line check assigned at 0600 on day 1 of a LC block. Called scheduling and said that was in violation of the PWA and they said sorry it’s a training thing and scheduling can’t touch it. It was also a weekend so calls to training went to voicemail, cause who the heck works weekends.
Decided to fly it and get paid later but it was like pulling teeth. ALPA said I was due pay, but it took 9 freaking months and multiple emails and calls to actually pay out.
