If it does, don't worry about it. ALPA will have guidance for people in that situation.

No back to work agreement would ever, ever not include probationary pilots who honored the strike. This is simply a no-brainer. Stop worrying probe, you will be protected. Honor the strike no matter what.

So I am relatively new to this, (not the company, and voted in favor of the strike already), but I see a difference between me going on a approved strike and some newhire on probation risking getting fired for not showing up for work. Personally I would avoid getting hired right now just to avoid that. How can you be so sure newhires who no-show for class would be protected?

Don't worry. When we go on strike ALL the pilots get fired

Exactly...

I have some history on this subject. When the parties agree on a TA, and thus end a strike, there is "ALWAYS" a return to work agreement that addresses these types of issues. The return to work agreement is part of the agreement to end the strike. It is just as important as the tentative agreement itself. This is how the process works in every strike without exception. The return to work agreement includes "make whole" clauses such as pay and benefits. Any union that would not include new hires and probationary pilots in this agreement would be grossly negligent.

Exactly. I don't know why any new hire would think they are different. We all get fired during a strike

Everyone would be fired. You hope the company and the union would make sure everyone would be asked back.
