I only answer company phone call when i'm only supposed to, i.e. Ask yourself 2 questions: 1) Am i getting paid at this moment to take their call? 2) Will answer this call benefit me somehow. For example, a phone call during a 30 hr. layo is usually a raw deal, if you ask me.
If you're not sure, let it go to v-mail, and check your sked without acknowledging until you know what you get yourself into.
So true and so sad at the same time. When will management realize that a beneficial synergy can occur the second we start working as a team? I'm bidding out of the ER to whatever I can hold a line on for this very reason. And where is ALPA when scheduling consistantly give us 5am show for a 24 hour SC? The scheduling department sure has gone south and sour in the last year. I had enough..... DC-9 here I come but at least I can hold a line and won't be abused by big J ever again.
