Huh, seems like they give their crews time to turn the jets. What a concept.

Default New rule

New Rule for Reserves:

Every day the DRO is late, add up the delay in minutes and put those minutes in a "time bank". Once those delay minutes equal 4:12 you get a day off.

The DRO the other day was 3+ hours late. They expect us to show up on-time, but yet they can't do their job on-time.

Pathetic.

Was talking to guy here the other day who said he'd been keeping count. Sounds like its been 65 consecutive days with the DRO being late. Not sure how accurate that is but it does make me wonder how many times I could show for work late and not activate the dependability policy?

Management's job is to understand the environment they work in and create solutions. JB needs to get creative, develop a long term growth plan that takes this into account and not blame ATC for delays they help create. They are in the big leagues now, play and act like it!
Maybe the plan should include overnights in places with 7:41 turns so when you taxi for 1:59 they're not scrambling to gather crews from out stations in Texas when we time out after the first leg. But no worries, it's only a three hour drive between AUS and the other TX destinations. They'll drive someone over. Eventually.

Honestly, I am surprised the company hasn't send an email changing the published DRO time to something later by now, in order to avoid sending emails apologizing for the late publishing times, on an almost daily basis. Saying you are Sorry over and over again, yet nothing changes, means you Don't really Care. I wonder if they send you a little thank you email or note for picking up RSA, VDA... Never done one but my guess is that they don't. Contract Above All!
