Lineholders get pay protected AGAIN!
#61
If you could have held a line but purposely bid reserve for reasons you thought might benefit you; well that’s tough luck and on you. For others on reserve because that’s what your seniority holds; well that’s what your seniority holds. Good grief people, how else is this supposed to play out? Be happy you have monies being deposited in your checking account next month. We are experiencing unprecedented times, the company is trying to tread water while abiding the best they can with our CBA. No other industry I can think of is paying employees to not work. We are lucky; quit being petty and count your blessings.

In a lot of industries people are getting paid to do nothing or very little work thanks to the virus and government. My neighborhood and friends might be different than most tho. Saying we are lucky to get violated by our company is not smart

Im happy sitting in my cave watching the craziness because i would of only made 3 to 6 more hrs but would like the piece of mind that my whole schedule is dropped. If the company canceled all flights then all reserve should of also. I guess its cheaper to give 35% of the pilots free money than working with union and pay the whole pilot group again. Im not going to be a opentime virus till June but the trips will be worked out by then and no extra time will be available.

The only problem is, if you read the email from the mec that came to your personal email, it appears they did actually work in collaboration with the union to come up with this. Thats what I got from it anyways.

The company has 100% support from the union on this. Again, it’s complete bul!sh1t, and yet another example of reserves being treated as second class citizens.
