Nope! I aint buyin that comment. I'm not sayin there aint the same percentage of jerks at UAL as there is at CAL and any other airline becuase THERE IS (human nature an all...), but please don't whip out that standard issue furloughed-guy billy club and think yer gonna beat us with it when the truth is that JRM events seem to be way down and UAL reserves are seein low utilization.
Oh yeh! There is not any extra time right now, but how about last summer. JRM aside, look at all the lines that are built to 90+ hours. I know that is not any pilot doing beause the company is building these lines and pilots can't drop trips even if they wanted to. PBS, that's another story.. I did not intend to make any personal attacks, just frustrated.
