Do you blame them? If someone was dogging you all summer long saying you are terrible at your job and need to lose your gov pension, would you do them any favors?

 

Here is my example... This is all on us... and maybe my fault too.

Waiting to push for 1 hr from gate 16. You name it we couldn't get it. Looking out my window it's a cluster out on 13L lined up the entire length. ( you see where I'm going with this) We ask for the bridge to be reconnected to reset that clock. Ops response was they didn't have anyone just go. 30min later I call for taxi... 25 min later and 100 yards we start heading back for the gate. Guess how long that took. In the end we timed out... No im not nor did go pass what my little white piece of paper says I'm allowed to.
Nobody listens to the captain anymore... Or maybe ever here. Everyone seems to know better than the guy with 20+ yrs of experience.
This was just one thing... One that sticks out. Every trip this summer has been like this.
Last trip I operated once in four days... Delayed, cancelled, timed out...Great pay but it's not sustainable.

I timed out 3 times in July without ever leaving jfk

 

That is productivity at its finest. I honestly find this operation hilarious. I read the chief pilot updates or the upper management emails and just laugh at how bad we run. The funniest part is how my momma always told me 'Stop looking for someone to blame and just fix the freaking problem.'

 

I deadheaded to Port Au Prince. Then deadhead right back. Emergency assignment. Productivity.

 

Sadly sitting in the back of that plane you were grossly underpaid!!!

 

The best part is the "IROP Pants video" that was published a few days ago.

 

A new one or the original one from awhile ago?

 

My irop pants have a hole in them
