My friends on reserve are constantly having the rug pulled out from under them by people plucking up the open time.
I just can't believe any of what you're saying at face value after the overwhelming amount of evidence against it. Now, let's stop hijacking this thread. If you'd like to continue this discussion, PM me. But first, drop the attitude before you do so.
Oh you got friends, wow, what was I thinking?
PM'd you already, why don't you have your friends call scheduling and see who's picking up the open time. As per the night supervisors, there's a lot of last minute trading taking place which is perfectly acceptable as it places other trips back in the pool.
You got called out dude, you accused your peers of doing something they're not doing. They're doing the opposite, they've changed their lifestyles for you and 346 of your peers. The least you can say is thank you, and that you're sorry for accussing your peers without any real cause whatsoever.
This is not a thread hijack, because it directly sends the wrong message to those that think it's ok to pick up open time at ASA. Nice job, way to support your peers and your fellow ALPA pilots at ASA that are being furloughed.
