Default Willingly violating the CBA 4x’s

I actually don’t blame the company. When our own pilots keep falling all over themselves to accept the illegal assignments, why wouldn’t the company just continue to give everyone else a giant middle finger.

Sometimes being part of a union means temporarily going against your own self interest to protect the CBA.

I hear ya Eagle. Pilots are fascinating creatures. One of the most center-of-the-universe groups I've ever observed.

4th time in the last two months the company has offered premium open time in violation of our LOA. Our “union” pilots made that open time disappear in a matter of mins each time.

I guess turning 25.R on in August was too risky? Could have saved $$/ grievances/ etc

This is why i voted yes. We were fighting an uphill battle against ourselves. Wasn’t worth the unknown.

Yup. I have to believe we’ll get em next time.

IMO, we didn’t do bad for our first time.

+1

We can, and should, do better. I think we did pretty decent overall though.
