If you are not connecting the dots on how the company feels we are valued, then I feel sorry for you.... Keep your blinders on and fly as much extra as you can while it lasts. Good luck!

Unfortunately, I'm afraid you have a point.

I wonder if someone in management had a side bet: "Hey, what could you do to screw up peak the most?" They certainly appear to be trying to make sure pilots don't lift a finger to help.

Apparently there were 5-6 unfilled captain slots on the board in the AOC tonight. It was senior recognition night for one of my daughters tonight, so I passed on 2 draft calls (as a commuter) in 12 hours….

What's with all the brand new posters about FedEx issues? Hmmm.

Yo Albie --- if it wasn't senior recognition night, I'd really hope you'd pass on any draft calls anyway

???

Nobody needs an external reason --- the company has given us plenty over the past few months

As you adeptly pointed out, PCs just upped the ante!!

Enjoy the Holidays!

If we come down with a fever, would it be smart to quarintine ourselves for 21 days just in case? Never know where our planes have been. Ebola is a dangerous and contageous disease. I'd hate to get another pilot sick because I flew sick. Would that be the safest choice?

anyone who flies through AFW, DFW, EWR, PWM, BGR and any other areas of known or suspected Ebola patients should quarantine themselves for 21 days, just in case.

Well, I don't know. Yes, some could be management or trolls, they seem obvious. Then again, some could be people who have been lurking that have just decided to start posting because an issue grabs their attention. Sometimes that's why people start posting, because something in particular ****es them off. Those who are just starting threads....I dunno.

I haven't been through MEM in awhile. I thought you were talking about posters in the AOC.
