Default Long Call Reserve

What's the point of long call reserve if all the company is going to do is convert it to short call after day 1.

Secondly, who negotiated that into the contract?

Seems that there is no point to having a long call reserve line or even bidding it.

Another reason the new contract is garbage. Having had a few LC assignments before I had no idea why people were actually excited for it.

the purpose is to allow the company to assign trips to reserves earlier. I have a feeling its a work around to having to show all open time. Now they can assign trips to a long call as a place holder, then once on or checked into the trip they re-assign the long call and assign the trip to a normal reserve.
Good news is after a few conversions they have to buy you a hotel.

I was excited about it until the new contract.

Furlough pay dropped from four to three weeks. Just vote yes so ALPA can put it in their newsletter. Who cares what's in it?

Interesting, that never got brought up at Skybridge.... Neither did the loss of OE pay.

I love how the contract says “may be” converted to short call yet managements take is “will be” sounds like bad faith negotiations if that’s how they interpret it.

Exactly!

Is ADV RSV in CSS the same as LCR? If it is, that's not what the announcement said it would show.
