Just wow. Blame the MEC for the activist investors holding the CEO and BOD hostage and demanding "improved efficiencies" (cash-outs).

Dammit ALPA, why did you let the junior guys get screwed in that way?

Are you out of your mind!?!? "Than" is definitely "no-brained"

I work with crazy people.

umm, yes, very true.. might want to read that again..

the only contract requirement is to have one practice. sorry you can’t read.

24.B.4
”The Company shall publish at least one practice bid award between 7 days and 3 days prior to the closing of any System Bid . The results of a practice bid(s) shall be communicated to pilots through the Company’s appropriate electronic system (currently the PFC website) no later than 24 hours after the closing of the practice bid .”

You do realize many junior guys are protected in their Captain seats due to the fact we don’t rerun the entire seat and domicile each vacancy bid.

This is a false statement. Should someone senior to you need a category because they've been displaced out or their category is closing, they can come into your category and will bump you off the category into another category you bid or your seniority can hold.

Last bid B767 training
 
Does anyone know the status of B767 training from the last bid? I know there had been delays…is it complete? I thought I read or heard that training on this bid could start as early as August.
