Picking up a trip after an alert and asking for a later/earlier show, very greedy. You're on flica for once and get a decent trip instead of the regular Cartel guys and try to trade it, very greedy. Where in writing is this not allowed. I put almost my entire schedule up on the board after the bid results. Is that greedy?

The greedy part has to do with the fact that no on wants pilots picking up trips. You know.... to stiff it to the company. We all know that's not going to happen. I am saying, if you have no intention on flying the trip you pick up... don't pick it up.. it leaves a sour taste in many people's mouths when a pairing is in open time and then 5 minutes later it's used to leverage another trip.

Like I said many times before, if any of you think we will have a CBA soon, think again! Too many juicers and *****s still around that are either just happy to be here, or only care about themselves and their pocketbook and are too stupid to realize we shouldn't have to be doing any of this crap (VDA, RSA, Flica Whoring, etc) to make up for our crappy pay and work rules.

Did you submit a scheduling PDR to ALPA or is complaining about it here adequate to get it addressed??

Since you brought it up ever so passive aggressively. Yes. I did submit the PDR. You can pm me and I'll give you a copy if you want.

Ah. Sounds like a scumbag regional tactic trying to skirt rules and regulations with intent to cause a crew to violate FARs. Their backdoor notification method shows they knew what they were doing was wrong. Hopefully the PDR is effective.

It goes right to ALPA. There's an option to agree to share with management.

Would that be the guy trying to trade for a later show?
