Loved it.

A few weeks ago I had a mainline AA fa try to tell me she had priority over me as a pilot on my own metal AA side... 
Imagine her surprise when she didn't get on.

As others have mentioned...there's stuff we can do for the greater good.
PHX reserve and I blew over 100 credit hours this month. I did pretty well considering I was the most junior guy for month 1 in a new base. That said, thanks to fellow crew members getting the itis, ie, vaginitis, or suffering from tiny heart syndrome, or lack of integrity, there's been quite the bit of shifty and creative scheduling.
3 dead heads to do 1 leg of flying to cover an out of base trip. Let that sink in. Then, it's all legal. It was contractual, within FDP, etc. I still called to ensure legalities and get clarification.
You have an obligation to fly if the safety, 117, and legality pillars are met. If there's any confusion, you also have an obligation to call. Get the Chiefs on the phone and see if the story changes. Sometimes it's ignorance and that's where the guys that have been there a while need to point stuff out.
Section 25.AA is a common one , suggest you take a look as that one has been violated a lot .

Honestly guys get the chiefs on the line, it all comes down to the CBA, schedulers aren’t trained to know in-depth contractual language. You have a right to talk to any chief pilot for an operational issue or necessity. They (the chiefs) will not purposely or knowingly violate the CBA...ASK FOR THE CP ON CALL
Scheduling is a direct function of the SOC who reports to the 119 DO and the 119 Chief Pilot of the Airline
