It was not me, but I just saw it and was wondering where our union is to stop this nonsense...
Huh? What the hell...Someone got put on shortcall. They are based in DTW, where a lot of guys commute to. Outrageous. Where is ALPA to put a stop to this nonsense!?

I live in ATL and am based here. Shortcall should cease immediately in ATL because I don't want to be on shortcall. And I have to drive to the airport and everything. This is b.s. Thanks a lot, ALPA. Where's my DPA card to mail in?
