THEIR POCKETS!
People should never hesitate to call in fatigued if they are truly fatigued, regardless of the number of hours rest they had or if they are coming off a days off.Originally Posted by BeaglePilot
Another knee-jerk reaction from MF and the gestapo. I hope everyone continues to call in fatigued, and continue to hurt them where it hurts most. THEIR POCKETS!
However, those who abuse the policy to suit their own needs only hurts their fellow pilots who use the policy in a responsible way.
The FastRead that was sent out today gave examples of how pilots have been abusing the fatigue policy, and it is a chosen few who are making it difficult for the rest. Posting on your Facebook acct that you are planning to call in fatigued in order to go home early is not the way the fatigue policy was to be used.
I, in no way, agree with the new company policy. However a select few pilots are making the argument to Mgmt from our MEC a more difficult one.
Remember guys, if you are truly fatigued you should not hesitate to call in fatigued, just do not abuse it.
