I dont understand how asking people to not volunteer to work on their days off if considered a "Job action"?

 

Bid's for June came out today on the net. Something isn't right though still

There's 176 captains AND fo's in STL
In Richmond, there's 58 CA's and 83 FO's, and scheduling says even before this, they were short on captains in Richmond!!

We still have US Airways flying for the next month as well. I think I'm just gonna figure out women, prolly easier than figuring out this company

 

ANY organized action or drive (other than a NLRB approved strike) which can measureably affect the company in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER is considered self-help and is illegal. This has been upheld many times in the past.

If a union in any way sponsors, encourages, publicizes, or communicates such an action they will be held financially liable for the company's damages.

In fact, if a union fails to take aggressive action to discourage self-help activities, they can still be found liable. This is why unions will usually denounce any such action which they become aware of.

Unions have been fined millions (maybe tens of millions) in the past for this sort of thing.

Individuals who organize these activities could also get fined or fired.

 

Absolute most important statement in this entire thread. They play the game and now is the time for you to play it too. And by the way why is Gojets still posted on this website, I thought this place was supposed to promote bettering our profession?[/quote]

Come on..... Just do your job!!

 

This all feels like I'm work on a railway or something...hmmm

 

Just looked at the bid pack
The lines that I have looked at so far look pretty good.
I only lost 8 spots this month, I know that is not consolation to the ones that lost their seat.
It still smells like something is going behind the scenes to me

 

RIC got pummelled again with this US Airways flying. We have 400 hours while stl has 900 hours in US Air.

 

I have not made it that far into the bid packs, I dont normally look at rics unless someone says something about it

 

If the rumors I have heard of furloughs are true and if that is in fact the case you guys are always welcome at Comair. Comair is currently hiring 12 a week for the foreseeable future. Anyone who might want to consider it send me a PM and I will gladly forward your resume to our HR folks.

This completely sucks, even Greyhound is not hiring. The good news is you can take the computer based training at home and behind-the-wheel in Richmond while sitting reserve. I wonder if the Waste Management folks are hiring.
