They have here for 117 flight time, it's now based on forward movement but they can't change brake release for pay without negotiating with the union because that's defined in our contract.
For Skywest they could change theirs tomorrow and they'd have nothing to do about it. No union. No contract.

It's getting tougher to do though, I'm sure.

That's the risk you take being an organizer, but he would have been treated with kid gloves by HR. Otherwise he'll have his job back shortly. Either someone else steps up or you continue doing what you all signed up for, undercutting other regionals and praying it never bites you.

It's pretty tough here with the Utah strength koolaid.
The guy that got fired was on the organizing commitee and the company dredged up things from months ago.
Remember we are an "at will" employer and can be fired for anything or simply nothing.
Our glee club representation is bought and paid for by management, so there's no help there either.

I've seen guys get fired from at will employment states, and that after one day. The funniest case was telling a guy he was fired, the private lawyer who the pilot retained had his job back with two phone calls. Best part was he was paid to sit at home until the situation was resolved.
I didn't think there would be any help from your student council. I was pretty sure i made that clear, but if not let me do so now. You're effed.

If they don't want you releasing the brake prior to push then don't be in a huge hurry to release the brake. Do everything by the book.
Lets see what happens to the middle manager who came up with this brilliant idea. When your on time departures fall down with the likes of Frontier I expect this brainchild of an idea will go away.
