What??? If I am assisgned a hotel standby period and I can get to the hub in 30 minutes or less and I accept the responsibility, how the h3ll is O helping me out by making me stand it from home. I've never missed a call out while doing this. Why should I get lumped into the same pile as the guy who did? And how is it undermining the contract if I ask CRS to stand it from home and they agree. Once again we are our own worst enemies..... You ever heard of the " Crab syndrome?" If you throw a bunch of cabs in a pot to boil, if they see one of their buds getting out of the pot they'll actually grab him and drag him back in with the rest. Hello fellow crabs.......
