When Envoy takes our planes we’ll be getting birds for Hawaiian. Mainland connection flying.
It’ll be Hawaiian “outrigger Service” (wa’a) .
Heard it from a new hire at HAL

That's not to say they don't game the system to get stuff done, and that crap needs to be called out.

I don't think that's the case at all,at least interactions I've had with them. Keep in mind they are under pressure from management to keep planes in the air and not cancel for lack of crew as that will eventually lead to our performance metrics set by our codeshare partners to nosedive and then we will end up getting ExpressJetted when we fail to make contractual goals. yes,getting junior manned sucks,but unfortunately it's the nature of the industry. Planes break,weather goes to ****,our peers call in sick,etc.

This is it Compass cares about two entities: Delta and American no more and no less. Their objective is to provide reliable lift at all costs. They have zero obligation to follow the CBA they know how weak the union is and will continue to ignore the CBA to fulfill their needs.
Their incentive to honor it? Another story.

Exactly. We’re paid to do a job. Sometimes that means putting in overtime. Happens at every job. Such is life. Everyone needs to take a little ownership; if we don’t move planes, were ALL out of a job.

I think if you get junior manned and you think you were called out of line, you should let the union know so they can look into it. My hunch is that it is being misused and abused, they through it around in a very cavalier manner as if it's their little trump card to extend you into the next day.
There is quite a bit of contract language regarding junior manning and I suggest we all get up on the rules. It used to not happen like this before where it's all the time, so it wasn't a focus point for me, but it needs to start being one..
