You're very blatantly ignoring the elephant in the room: this isn't only affecting the company. This is a small minority of pilots negatively affecting everyone else in their categories.

You seem to need some anger management and reading comprehension classes. Congratulations on getting all hyped up over people having intelligent conversations.

How many 23M7, 4F1C, or similar have you had in the last month? Honestly.

You know what will really harm union pilots? Giving concessions to the company for free for a problem that they created and continue to perpetuate and show zero inclination of changing all because you are mad about how THE COMPANY is CHOOSING to react to a situation of their OWN creation.

Are the auto accepters making it worse? Of course, but it’s not their fault, nor their problem to solve.

You not being awarded a theoretical green slip because the company hit the 23m7 button during the WS step does not mean you were “harmed.” That’s a ridiculous notion. But sure, go ahead and take the boot licker way out and blame your fellow pilots and advocate for actual concessions, that’s real smart :rolleyes:

What new ARCOS? I haven’t heard anything about it. Nevermind. Just checked my email. Sounds like it’s being automated. Hopefully this ends the IA’s.

He seems so jacked up about how “smart“ these pilots are that I would imagine he had quite a few. Personally, I’m not the morality police and don’t even avoid it because of that. I’m just lazy.

New Scheduling Alert just came out.

zero. there are about 20ish pilots senior to me (from looking at the arcos callout log) that are playing the game.

this is about principle. that #1 guy in my category who has had 7 23m7 trips this month is doing nothing wrong. its a contract loophole that is in delta's best interest to close.

they've already started covering open time trips earlier which in the long run is helping the pilot group. you guys brow beating the farmers isn't going to solve anything. this will be solved at the negotiating table...we have the leverage and some of you are tearing down your own union members.

Which is completely beside the point because the company created this problem, continues to perpetuate the problem, has shown almost no inclination toward changing the problem, and are the ones who created and control literally all of the processes used in this scenario.
