Answering questions on how to SAP is not an active collective attempt to hurt the company. The company has even said to SAP to our hearts content in the last various emails. They freaking teach you the basics of SAP during the interview Q&A.

Everyone around here is thinking that even saying the word SAP will bring down fire and brimstone...

......SAP......

I was talking to a buddy of mine at PSA and he said you guys have some kind of great scheduling flexibility. Would any of you happen to know what he's talking about?

I think it's the Period of Scheduling Adjustment, or PSA. I keep seeing that acronym and no one seems to know what it stands for.

Sitting hot reserve? Pull out the CBA and read it about five times cover to cover and you will be better off. If everyone did that, imagine where the pilot group would be?

Remember the class we got in ground school that taught us how to bid and SAP? Yeah, me either...

I feel bad for the quiet minority that relay on a 65 hour schedule and don't go around bragging about their days off/credit and telling everyone how to do it.

People have been S*Ping to 65 since I got hired 3 years ago. It's nothing new.

Everyone knows how to S*P to 65. The only thing the new people need help with is to do it efficiently to get 18 or 19 days off, instead of just 15 or 16.
