That's what I told them but they told me to suck it up and that without a legitimate excuse I would be suspended without health insurance.

These policies and procedures should not discourage flight crewmembers from taking sick leave when they are ill.

Our FSDO is in bed with Management. Our POI and his cronies, go out weekly and play golf with our CEO and his cronies.

Excellent point you have there, but at Pinnacle, the only thing the FAA is concerned about is whether or not they will be able to keep their overpaid FAA jobs as inspectors, without having to do hardly any work. When they visit our recurrent ground school classes, we bring up the same illegal practices that our company does, and all they say is "ok, thanks, I'll look into that." It's just a dog and pony show.


Yes I have seen them on the golf course together, it's not just a rumor.

You have to look at the wording from the DW standpoint. See, it says "encouraged." Not "required." Not "the company will." Just "encouraged." They encourage all they want, then 9E can say "Thank you for the suggestion" and continue to move on doing whatever it is they want to do.
