I got the phase 2 call a few years ago. Here is what I suggest.

Instead of buying yourself a round to celebrate, I suggest cancelling your cable subscription and all unneccesary expenses. Begin putting any excess money into a strike fund and spend your days off at job fairs as well as updating your apps.

What was it again?

Just giving you a hard time, just felt like it was all you said for a few months

So why are you an apologist for wearing blue gloves and cleaning the plane? Is that what a professional pilot does? They just don't want to hire cleaners so they forced you to sign a legally binding contract to do it.
It's people like you who aren't informed enough to see the problem with it. This industry is full of people like you and you are part of the reason we are the most disrespected of all professionals out there. If you're not angry, fine (and good), but show results. Don't beg for sloppy seconds.

I'm not an apologist. I don't clean when on duty. I do abide by the requirements to nonrev, because that's what the company has chosen to require in exchange for flight benefits. Don't confuse the two issues.

I'm not misinformed, but you seem confused.

I may be wrong, but don't something like 60-65% of pilots commute to JFK alone? Taking away commuting privileges, simply because a pilot doesn't stick around to help clean the plane, doesn't seem to be in the company's best interest.

If the company required you to help inflight during their service while nonreving, would you do it? I'm an outsider, so maybe this isn't completely appropriate me to comment on, but the more people bend for a company with such a disdain for their professionals, the more companies will try to take advantage. It has to stop somewhere.
On the other hand, with such terrible on time performance, next time your commute runs late, take the time to do a thorough cleaning and just push another delay by not being to the gate if it's a factor. :D

This is true- B6 management has become a childish group who is ****ed at the union and tries anything to exert control over the pilot group. They will be rudely awakened after an 80%+ strike vote, which needs to happen when we all FINALLY realize that they intend NO CBA in the near future. Wake tf up guys.:rolleyes:
