United doesn't check in. We're all professionals here, I don't see why checking in is necessary.

I was responding to DENpilot. But thank you. Please, please DONT get on board. Keep up your "everything". Please. This way there is NO way in which ASA will merge with your side. At this point, I have yet to talk to an ASA pilot who wants a combination with the ERJ pilots. DIVORCE! Love the stickers by the way.

If the alternative is a concession towards your contract then fine with me.

Actually, ASA didn't buy anybody. We were bought by SkyWest, Inc, just as ASA was.

Xjt's management wants to keep comparing themselves to other regionals and running it as such but the reality is we are an operation that cannot operate like a regional with 30 airplanes. We have a route structure, multiple bases, and a very different way of doing business on two sides of XJT's operation. We are more complex than many LCCs and are right up there with legacies when it comes to operational issues.
The mickey mouse hour is over. Promoting pilots and flight attendants to "manage" isn't cutting it. They wanted a super regional and created a behemoth of an airline that cannot be run like a regional. Step one is never using the word regional when referring to XJT. Step two is getting people that understand why step 1 is necessary in positions of power.

Our show time is one hour before departure time. We are not required to have mobile phones, computers, or any devices. So if they want to change our schedule, they either get a crew tracker or Cheif pilot to notify us in person or more than likely, you don't see your name on the release. Which at that point you are required to contact scheduling.
You really favor sending crew trackers and chief pilots to chase down crews? Maybe you should embrace modern technology.
Seems to most on the ASA side that your side is just trying to be difficult.

See above post... then look up a company stooge by the name of Cashmarek, and ask how much he was paid off to flush our scope down the SkyWest toilet.
