Some of us have been doing this for a while, and still have a long way to go. They just don't like the changes that AFPC is going to make CBPO do to you while TDY, because of the AFR (AFI). So go to the BX and flash that grey ID and get a grip on yourself.

DLax85 and others.
Please do not feed this troll. This guy gleefully wishes for the demise of others on this board to better himself. I stopped responding a year ago.
My situation has changed from freight to pax in the last year but those nights of abuse are still fresh. I for one am appalled but not surprised by the FAA's statement. This is what we get when a Government Agency has a dual mission
I think what the IPA is doing is right and just and have said so in past threads. There should be a way to donate to their/our cause they are fighting. I'd step up. What about the rest of us??

I'm assuming "we" is people who think I'd give up my QOL to make some point on their behalf. Please don't mind the laughing.

When rules are enacted they should be a benefit to the group AS A WHOLE. Not just to the work schedule YOU can hold. These new rules don't benefit every single line but they aren't meant to. They are meant to prevent management from scheduling those dangerous lines they just can't stop themselves from making.
You'll never volunteer for union work because you don't see anything in it for yourself or because you judge those putting in so many hours for no extra pay to be fools.
Thanks for the input. We get it.
