The point is , they made these rules o begin with. And now without our side agreeing (aka no union) they change the rules.

True. But exploiting loopholes is against the "spirit" of the rule and the result are even more rules as you cannot plan for every eventuality.

Unfortunately, the company is also exploiting rules that go against the spirit if what was intended or what would be common sense.

The result are deteriorating working conditions and mistrust.

SKYW is what it is because of employee morale and respect for the people. Mess with that and things will go downhill fast.

And yet again this dam Jepp app isn't downloading the chart updates. 2nd time I've had this happen and I'm sitting at home can't talk to IT for them to unistall and reinstall the application because its after their hours. Yet I'm home and have to work early first thing in the morning so now I guess I'll have to get up extra early just to get Jepp fixed. Jesus Christ.

Dangerous logic as you could extend that to other things.
You want to get paid for a deadhead? You want to get paid for a holiday at home?

Min guarantee is just that. The Company (Pbs) had its chance to get this line holder a line. It failed and he gets his guarantee and he gets his vacation.

No need to use His name in vain.
