It appears one of our furloughed pilots has connections in high places.

They company is obviously here to help us. They stated this in the recent memo explaining the deduction reversal on epic hidden under my jobs--

"Ultimately, this change benefits our furloughed pilots, and we are pleased about that."

THANK YOU Mgt, we are so fortunate that you were looking out for the little guys!!

This change may help you, and I am happy for you if it does. However, you are giving praise to Mgt for doing their job and abiding by a contract that they signed. How often do they praise you for showing up to work?

I was being sarcastic. The part about Mgt helping us should have indicated this.

Happy Furlough Day to my fellow Oct. 5th furloughees! Hope you're enjoying it as much as I am... Weeeeeee! Going to a garbage can cookout later and I've been told I don't have to bring the beer because I'm unemployed. For the first time in a few months, I can't find a reason to complain!

Good luck to all you guys. Hopefully it wont be long. I'll be joining you in a month.

have a question.............

i have a day off today and tomorrow is my walk of shame lol. what should i do with my manuals and badge etc. union rep said to mail it certified but was wondering if i can turn it in at jfk(cvg based)? wondering if 5th was a do it day or can be extended if needed?

thanks

I think they should send a FedEx box, with a pre-paid return label to those who are off the final day, or whose duty period ends after CP office hours. Why the hell should we go there post furlough date or incur any expense to mail their property?

Also, shouldn't it be "The Walk of Shame on Comair"?

Whatever you do make sure you get a receipt. They (CVG CP Office) gave me one when I turned in my manuals and IDs today.

I asked the ladies in the CP office the other day and they said the CP's office can take manuals and ids. I would guess that JFK would do the same. I have to hold onto my stuff until tomorrow becuase they have me on A5 today. Holding me until the very last second...a-holes. I hope I can find a better place and when they call for a recall I can tell them EXACTLY where I want them to shove it!!!
