Unfortunately because of the way arbitration works, it is easy and relatively risk free in theory for an ENY manager to target or direct the targetting of a particular pilot and it will never come up in discovery, which is informal at best when it does happen. I've seen this myself with how the company responded to another pilot who likes to complain excessively (imo) about hotels.

Agreed but be aware that arbitration favors the company due to the RLA. The companies knows this and uses it to their advantage.

Another reason to fight for increased flow. The sooner you are out the sooner you are away from predatory practices.

career decision day

choice 1 - fired
choice 2 - sign, agreeing to be fired if you break any rules while the letter is in effect, 1 year is standard.

in their discipline manual it comes after C&C, step 1, step 2.... none of which I had.

Im sure they figured with NY closing and me commuting that they’d get me on another MA. Never happened.

That would be a CDO and contextually doesn’t fit the conversation either.

You’re dealing with an unethical management team. A few are genuinely good guys.

The staffing problems would vanish if they just treated their employees better. They’re positioned to be the lead regional in the industry. Instead they harass, vilify and abuse their staff.

aviation is a small world and word gets out. Everybody knows Envoy has a toxic relationship with its pilots compared to other carriers.

Fix the reserve rules, fix the order of assignments, stop making lineholders reserve with endless reassignment. For Gods sake learn to schedule and get rid of airport ready reserve. Pay a minimum value for a day away from family. Lost weekends and 12 hour four day trips are just outright wrong and abusive. If they absolutely must have it, make it pay a good premium.

Stop abusing people just just because you can.

the flip side is that the average line guy probably has zero idea of the really stupid stuff pilots do and get in trouble for. I was amazed at some of the stuff I defended guys for. The sad part is, I never lost one... except my own......

Amen dude. Can't believe the atmosphere of disrespect. I don't know if my experience is representative, but 99.9% of guys I've encountered on the line genuinely want to complete the mission and do what we can for the passengers & the operation. Meanwhile management poops on us and looks to erode what little the market has forced them to give.

But just ask THCoolAid, Envoy has an unlimited supply of never before employed in the real world and HIGHLY qualified cadets lined up to fly the 175 for peanuts, well, now popcorn, and a falsehood of a 5.5-6 year flow.

what was the last part you say I’m skipping? They did a CDD, I signed it. Or that they fired me twice more over the next year and a half in between lots of attempts to make life miserable. Should have fought the CDD. Worst legal advice ever. Picketing them publicly at LGA probably didn’t help, but it what my pilots wanted to do.

You missed the part why you were terminated. It wasn't the MA. But if that's all you want to say, we can leave it at that.

You're in the union and calling out a guy who was targeted by management for being an effective union rep. Your priorities seem out of whack

Agreed! Management is extremely hostile
