Four 4-Day 19+ hour trips, 16 to 17 days off in row.
Is that so hard to understand for the Babysharks?
That's what I did last year, that's what I'll do for the next month.

Unless the company wants to play dirty with unstacking. Just need to call in sick on those trips as an antidote 😬😏😉.

What’s that? You have no understanding of your industries history and no frame of reference through which to comparatively analyze? You don’t say...
Hopefully it’s just the reserve bit you were unclear on, I sure hope there’s not some other monumental piece of history regarding this industry’s labor that you may also be overlooking that could possibly be beneficial at this moment in time...
Knives and noses, take that face!

Or harassing the young flight attendants in the crew room.
Either way, unbearable boredom to me.
Hey, if you ever fly with me, I'll let you do the Captain's announcements so you can outlive your inner fantasies.

I get it, dude.
I'll take the flight anytime over an endless annoying airport standby.
4 hours paid for day 1 @ aqp, yet 8 hours in classroom?
That's how the airline business works.
Whatever dude.
But steal 8 hours from me with 1 single day off in return?
HELL NO!
Vote NO!!!
