We’ll, when an Omni pilot has a future class at AA or wherever that grass is greener. There seems to be a trend. Use those sick days, take that vacation, and work as much OT to fill their checking account. Thought that was obvious, but obviously I was wrong about that.

Disagree. If you pick up OT while pilots are furloughed makes you a jerk. Coming in to fly on a strike makes you a scab. Flying the current contract negotiated by the union to pay whatever bills you have is no one's business.

No sir, I have never worked at a union shop.

nothing is wrong with burning vacation and sick days before leaving. Never said anything about that, just about picking up over time. If one leaves for their greener pasture they know what starting wages are so don’t work against the guys that are staying.

you are aware that what you’re advocating is illegal correct? A concerted effort and pressuring others to withhold services has been a losing case in court every single time.

id recommend a phone tree for passing along sensitive information. No email, no posting, no voicemail. Act like the company does with SSI. Never in public.

no one told anyone to do anything! I just said if you volunteer for open time you are an a**hole. That’s my opinion. Where is all this other stuff coming from? Because I never said it.

Isn't the difference between year 1 and 2 $8/hr?
