The wheels are coming off at Pinnacle
LOL. Just sit back and watch boys. I can't help but laugh.
How does this operation exist? Can't get a hold of scheduling. Dispatch can't get updated runway condition reports. (gave them 45 minutes.) What a joke.
Its only December and the wheels are coming off.
12/22/08 - 58 hours CA opentime and 14 hours FO opentime. Good luck filling it.
What was that displacement memo we just got?
Can't wait to see this place in February. Anyone got any stories?

LOL, it ain't just Pinnacle.
Spoke to a co-worker at the sim factory yesterday who's husband is at Continental. They have so much open time the next 7 days it's a wonder the airline will be able to operate. And this is after all the furloughs. Shoot yerselves in the foot.

I won't fault anyone for their use of sick time during the year but calling in sick on Christmas eve or day is just poor form, unless of course you are legitimately sick.
Someone has to work Christmas, and if you're junior and one of those people, accept it. Don't screw someone else into working your awarded trips b/c your too junior to hold the holidays off.

I think we'll operate just fine, unless we get hit with a heavy EWR storm, and having the furloughees back for that wouldn't make any difference because crew scheduling would, as usual, still be overwhelmed. I really wish we had a compelling need to drive the company to return the guys on furlough, but unfortunately it doesn't look like its there in the current schedule.

I'm filing 4 grievances for crap that happened to me in a 12 hour period
Or should I say they tried to make happen to me...
Don't worry our fearless leaders will soon put the training wheels back on the operation in time for Spring Break.......
Every winter, same crap. My puppy learns faster than our management.
