Huh, strange.


I hate the MOU's, but it sounds like they worked in this example?

Inadequate reserve coverage, and trips MORE than 4 hours= denied.

Inadequate reserve coverage, and trips LESS than 4 hours= MOU helped?

I hate the MOU's, should just be same day for same day= approved... or I still wish they'd say trip is denied for inadequate reserve coverage, that's the programming flaw.

A memorandum of understanding is an agreement between two or more parties. It expresses a convergence of will between the parties, indicating an intended common line of action.

That's what I heard too. Hm...Maybe they'll get around to it before too long.

Everything else you listed?

This may come as quite a shock to you, but those are things that JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER CO-WORKER OF YOURS DEALS WITH.

Look, I'm not here to argue; I know pilots are damned important, and aren't easily replaced. But using that excuse as rationale to say things like "No waivers! No favors! Fly the contract!" which really means, "I'm willing to screw over my customers and co-workers so I can show management I'm ticked that I didn't get everything I wanted!" isn't a great way to exhibit the value you bring to the table.
Yeah well we as a profession have this thing called the Railway Labor Act that’s been tying our hands for decades. Ya dig?

Erm....you may not be aware of this, but the RLA applies to every one of your co-workers who work under union contracts as well, from flight attendants, to CSAs, to Res Agents, etc.

So it's not just pilots who deal with working nights, weekends, holidays, etc.

I’m not talking about working nights, weekends, holidays, etc. I’m talking about how the RLA ties our hands with regard to contract negotiations.

Unless you’re c-level or higher, you are delusional about how and why this company funds and invests how they do.

Just ******* off. You’re obviosuly a scheduler or some retarded management troll (but...why?).
