As is, even when we de-ice we seem to always be early. I think the focus on operational excellence is building more credit than we usually use.

As much as door pay seems fair (without a trade), I do get tired of the "me too chorus" who are so forgetful our basic biological needs (drink, eat, pee). If we are going to get something, I'd like it to be pilot specific.

Umm...Why do we need to give up anything?
I've been trying to figure out what the company's trying to wring out of us in 117 negotiations, at least from a domestic standpoint.
Could it be an increase in the minimum days on reserve? For example, I believe most domestic categories allow a minimum of 3 days on reserve. Will the company try to increase that? Possible up to a minimum block of 168 hours on?
It would turn into a "system reserve" (or "SRT" as AF AMC guys would call it).
Basically, the company would assign you some rotation they have no intention of having you fly. Then, once you're out in the system, they can do whatever they damn well please until they have to send you home for 30/168 rest.
I'm just spitballing here to figure out where the company is trying to squeeze us.
Thoughts?

Well, you have got to give them this. Our boys know how to play in the present "deregulated" environment with such levels of govt interference in commerce and enterprise. This just makes me laugh.
