It is working to an extent and it would work better if people like you didn't pick up and save the company. Hope this places melts down this summer, I'll enjoy those days off when they can't find pilots or crews.

Is that the same justification we will see when you cross the picket line?

No Spirit seniority list pilot is going to cross the picket line when we strike, regardless of how much gravy they choke now. Even the ones who choked gravy with First Officers on furlough and downgraded Captains sitting in the right seat did not cross in 2010.

Returning from an extended, denied disability medical leave brought on by an incompetent AME and an FAA utterly disinterested in allowing me to fly again. I'm only coming back so i can make enough to pay my bills so no worries about me picking anything up but it would be nice if I could do something to mitigate the MOAB-level destruction inflicted on my financial life since I began my forced "vacation". I'll just have to wait until I get current and hired somewhere else to do that.

You called aeromedical and they were no help too? For me they've been worth every penny of union dues.

I did and if it wasn't for the help of one very driven individual I'd likely still be looking at another 6+ months out even though I was fit to fly over a year ago. I've been out of the loop since I went out and was hoping I'd soon be able to recoup at least part of what this whole F'ed up misadventure has cost me but after reading all this I realize I won't be able to unless/until I leave Spirit.

All the reason why we need a new contract fast.
