You really do not have much control over it. The company can and will sit you for days in R2. (Reserve) So you could have a hefty tax bill if your base has expensive hotels and flights!
You should not be imputed for hotels while sitting reserve.

EXCO Chair Update:

"First, as most of you know, an arbitration hearing was held last week in Washington, D.C. The company is trying to change Section 26.X. (Picket Lines) of the CBA, by deleting the last sentence of that paragraph. The sentence reads as follows: “Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed, however, to limit the rights of the Union or the Atlas Crewmembers to refuse to cross lawful strike picket lines established by or on behalf of pilots represented by any union lawfully certified or recognized pursuant to the Railway Labor Act.”
Here is what is at stake. If we prevail, things stay the same until the next CBA is negotiated. If the company prevails, then we will have no contractual protections with respect to crossing another carrier’s picket line. A change in the language clearly puts us all on a collision course with this management group. The choice will be: (1) Cross a picket line and be branded a “scab” for the rest of your career (i.e. not hirable at any respectable airline, no jumpseats, etc.); or (2) Refuse to cross the next picket line at the risk of the company taking action against you and your union."

Would suck to be on probation and face the decision of SCABBING or losing your job.

Why are so many being hired out of upgrade class? It's as if they know.

Atlas management is going to be parking airplanes soon if they don't get a clue.

They could care less. Additional $5 million in bonuses just paid out to the Execs. I know 3 more quitting this month. With the job fairs this week I'd imagine the pipeline out will only increase its flow.

In the case of this individual he put his app in the day they sued us. So attrition is about to go up even more at Atlas...

On what grounds / cause are they taking this particular section to arbitration? Or is this just general "let's **** with the union and cause them to burn money" tactics?
