I'd hate to see any of you guys taken hostage just like those before the Comair strike and those pilots at UAL who were sued. Please be careful!
You don't want a sick out!
I'm no lawyer but I don't think there is a problem with discouraging fellow pilots from volunteering for extra work assignments. You don't want to make threats but reminders should be OK. Especially when you have brothers who are out on furlough.
