Another example of a give away in that POS contract from 2015. We should have had language that stated “All parties engaging the pilots covered by this CBA must do so with calm voice and spirit”. Where’s ALPA on this issue???? Someone needs to file a grievance. JOKE for those who are a bit tight in the backside.
I have also been reprimanded by this individual when mask wasn't over my nose. Didn’t wast another second thinking about it until this thread. I guess I have no feelings left to hurt.

Ah, that brings me back to college. I had a friend who could do epic farts, I mean, they were incredible. Horrible smell, stayed around forever, it was toxic. Never quite believed her brags until she did it in my car one day before she got out. I had to pull over and air out, shortly thereafter feeling the need to sell that car. Louise, where are you when we need you?

Exactly. And what happened to empathy? Maybe this guys wife of 35 years contracted covid and died alone in the hospital on a vent? You never know. From what it sounds like, you weren't wearing your mask. Not trying to stir the pot, but for what your W2 says, is this really worth your time? Shake your head, laugh and move on. This guy is probably just a power hungry tool, BUT you truly never know what someone is going through. There's no need to flex on him and call up management.

I was wearing my mask properly, except when I wanted a sip of coffee. And, also so what? Why must we be subjected and treated to the same disrespect in their pining to get some? I don't know what he's going through. None of us deserve to be treated this way. Most guys (if not all) I fly with are very respectful towards the crew bus drivers. It's overcontrolling BS behavior. i.e. His bus, he's the DIC. Next time I will write him up for his disrespectful and based upon his unsafe distracted driving behaviors. Something I normally wouldn't even think about doing.

I've dealt with people like this my entire life. He probably heard stories about how much you guys are making and it starts to get to his head. With the masks being required, he finally gets his chance to "one up" the pilots. It makes him feel powerful and respected. He hopes you get angry and confront him so he can either tell you off more or report you to management. Best to just ignore him.

I had this guy today. He’s actually very courteous, but I have noticed that he is very touchy about masks.
I have approximately 2 seconds of brain space to be mad at this guy. And then I’m moving on with my life! Give him the benefit of the doubt and let him live.

Ummmm...NO! This is ridiculous and it needs to be a central pillar of our contract negotiation. Anything short of a no mask policy in our crew bus is a resounding no vote from me.
