7 in 12 months = Possible termination
I believe after the 5th they may also send you to their doctor in Memphis for a "checkup"..
The company also "requires" doctors notes for all holidays and the Super Bowl.

at the 6th level, a suspension is guaranteed, 1-3 days. They have the option to send you to their dial a doc that will find you unqualified, once that happens, good luck getting your job back.
They have never terminated anyone (yet), but it is coming.
Ironically all the letter of warning I have EVER seen (100's of them), they all say SICK as the reason for the absence. I have never seen a letter for absence other that sick.
Pinnacle management claims they borrowed the policy from XJET and CJC supposedly has the same as 9E

CFR 61.53 prohibits you from "Operations during medical deficiency". The next time you are told to call the CP or sign an "Occurance" letter, simply reference CFR 61.53 over the phone or on paper.
Problem solved.... You have complied with the letter of the law.....let 'em try to fire you....won't hold up in court.
