Or is he exercising his contractual rights under the pwa? How about a green slip after he/she is full? Violation or contractual right? 3 green might have a little fascism in his dna.

Not true. Full means CS cannot give you another trip or short call. There is no contractual provision stating you cannot choose to fly when you are full.

My view is that anyone YS'ing a trip after being full needs to find a life outside of this job.

More money more time off. That should be the goal of any contract but we've long since lost sight of that.

There is virtually no difference between a lineholder WS'ing and a RES who is full YS'ing.

Great point. And going further, any pilot who flies a green slip is hurting every pilot on property because if people didn't fly greenslips the company would be forced to hire more pilots.

Or they are deciding what is best for them and theirs under the PWA.

Any word on a thaw in allowing pilots to sport a well maintained beard/goatee? I've been on vacation and damn it, I've grown fond of the scruff.

You ever white slip after hitting the ALV? Thought so.

I am surprised no one has challenged the company on this issue. Once they changed the rules to allow beards and assorted other styles for the gate agents and flight attendants I don't believe they can set a different appearance standard for other public contact employees.

They kinda have the O2 mask trump card.

Enjoying my "7ER training complete awaiting OE" beard, myself. 7 weeks and counting.

Do the European carriers that allow beards have different O2 masks?
