Don't think you will see 10000+ seniority hitting "A" in that category if the new SEA73N is any indicator..

I would bet it will settle somewhere just junior of the SLC320 A positions. It might go 8000-ish.
Its a ways off though |

I would like to add that if the rotation is closed and you are showing reroute pay, they can still take it away. It has happened to me.
That's a good point hockey and very true. It's wise to keep an eye on your time card regarding how your reroutes are paid, even after they show as closed. It is my understanding that a Supervisor in Crew Scheduling audits them by hand and even if the rotation is closed, he can amend the pay treatment. I wish they would notify us (CNO) when it is changed, but they don't. |
Pilots can't work sick or tired. If they did, and screwed up and lost their job and a 30 year future career is wiped out is probably how much last? $6M-8M? Yeah, my tolerance for working sick is low now beyond just the safety risk.

What is too sick to an office worker vs an airline pilot? I mean if I came to work with the flu and worked at an office, what's the worst thing that happens? How about I fly an airline with the flu? What about a minor sinus issue that only hurts when you pressurize and depressurization. How about an eye infection in one eye? Can I fly like that? Bad back? Soar throat and lost my voice?
If I fly sick and screw up because of it, and I can't come up with a good explanation of why I screwed up, how much would losing this job cost me? I've got 28 years left. Two kids. Where can I go to make up this money? I've called in a total of 8 days in 7 plus years. But, I can't work sick. It just risks too much. You'll run out of sick leave after only 3.5 months, then go on Disability at 50% pay. :eek: Yeah, it sucks. Don't ask me how I know. :rolleyes: |

Anyone know how many years SD flew the line vs office work? My guess is not too long. Maybe if he flew several years of 75-90 hour months he'd have a different perspective.
I'm not sure he's got very much Capt. time at all, just like his predecessor, Smoke'n Joe. The VP of Flight Ops...on High Mins! :rolleyes: |

Don't ask me how I know. :rolleyes: Maybe they should start us on an hsa that we can save money like a 401k, let it pay for additional sick leave hours and builds otherwise it's ours for retirement. Sure guys would fly sick to save money but on the flip side just have little tolerance for that. I mean for a new hire with 30 years left what would that be if they never touched it? Possibly $500k over 30 years? Allow guys to choose between that with fewer company paid leave hours but additional hsa money and the current system. I made that up. Would that work or too left field? |
The new "Starbucks" coffee is awful. Well I should say the coffee is probably great but when you take bad water and great coffee you get bad coffee. I'm amazed that a company like Starbucks allow's their product to be devalued like that.
I'll stick to the Starbucks from the terminal....which is probably what they hope for anyways. ;) |
Where are you guys seeing this memo on sick leave?
I must have missed it. |
