For me, commuting is a choice and my belief is that the Jumpseat is for everyone no matter if they are heading out for fun or work. To have seniority taken out of the equation is difficult.

Are you seniority #1? If not, good luck being able to plan your commute. Oh wait, you prob live in base and only jumpseat once every other year. Girl bai [emoji1480] |

Thanks. Point taken, although I wasn’t trying to yell as much as to merely emphasize the word. Personally what I find “abrasive” is when people start throwing around words like “stupid”, “idiotic”, “tool” to describe what they think about someone else’s opinion...to which we are all entitled.
But your use of bolded, underlined caps screamed "DFW flip phone old dude" which is probably why they jumped on you. IMO. FWIW I disagree with the base as a whole on politics but the DFW guys I fly with are really nice, not what I was expecting. It does however have a lot of "this is the way we do it" which needs to open up to change. |

Oh for crying out loud. READ AGAIN the last line I wrote. We agree 100%...The jump seat is for EVERYONE. Show me where I said anything about the JS being for senior people only. Man you guys are a bunch of cry babies.

The only people crying are the super senior guys who are used to eating their own and just want the joy of bumping junior guys so they can go on vacation.

Wasn’t a scientific poll, so take it through a filter, but the DCA results are out.
471 polled 88% for current system 10% for hybrid 2% for pure seniority |
In other news, the 2% that voted for straight seniority also retire in 3 years, and are dying to give up work rules in exchange for increased pay rates and pension reinstatement.
They also live in base. GFYs |

When I read CnR you would of thought the opposite. I’m encouraged with these results...and proves that the CnR crowd are from outer space.
