Scheduling follows orders - if management tells them to change, they will. btw, what kinds of violations are you seeing? any time i thought something was shady, i'd ask them what section of the contract allowed it. the rules suck and they have lots of leeway, but every now and then i'd get out of something.

Your talking about an airline that started REAS to the tune of 40 million plus, new uniforms, etc. then laid off and shut down the operation in less than 6 months. When it comes to WASTING money, I wonder if Delta has an equal.

Just ride it out and don't sweat it, no matter which way this thing turns, your gonna be okay, unless Comair or any other airline is your world, but I know your smarter than that!

as far as management telling them to change wasn't it DS that was leading that charge? As far as contract violations Ive seen, none, I'm furloughed. I'm just basing this off of what i read in the VARS and how many violations the MEC is reporting and how many grievances are being filled.

Am I the only one that is confused here? I thought that clover42 was posting from the same IP as failblazer, and was one of his alter-ego screen-names? Apologies if this is not the case; I'm not quite sure what your game is now....

As far as the big announcement everyone was waiting for I'm pretty sure it was the Soaper thing. I also think that the furloughed group should probably expect to get some kind of an update from MP within the next week, likely after the next class starts on Monday. I'm doubtful of any recalls for now just because of all of the airline ownership changes but who knows.
