IROP
 

Discuss.

……

What’s there to discuss? ssdd

With Omicron about to hit everyone, we are potentially heading for a systemwide goat-rope at all carriers.

Seems like we should just start calling it ROP

Omicron is a cold. Nothing burger

Looks like all the premium flying is going to FOs.

Maybe so, but if enough pilots are forced to quarantine for it, it’s still a systemwide meltdown.

You assume we have a testing system to confirm we have omicron. Maybe you’ll stand in those lines they have in NY today for testing. Maybe you’ll be lucky to find a testing kit at CVS and then go through the hassle of getting the test cost refunded. 2 years in, still no viable and easily accessible testing for everyone. Big Government shows again how they can’t do much besides overspend

More likely people get it, it feels like a head cold, people show up like they usually do with a head cold, tell the other guy it’s “allergies” and the covid spreads and spreads.

Testing not available for the majority? Not sure where you live but out west there is zero reason to not get tested if you show symptoms. Testing sites everywhere, all are free and quick.

The place is printing more money then the fed. 10
percent cancelled? Doesn’t matter it’s “Printing money”

Have you seen the testing lines in NY? Once again NY is the epicenter of cases, with the testing lines to prove it.

Think it’s pretty much a done deal it will increase in numbers throughout the rest of the US. And that’s when I wonder how testing will be and how available it is.

Airports be packed! That’s a nice sight to see

ah you beat me to it. But yup, 11% canceled today so far.

Flow chart! Work the flow chart Bendo! The answer is in the flow chart.

How many tens of millions did we lose with the last meltdown and all they came up was “flow chart”

Crazy idea, maybe try to stay away from scenarios that require a flow chart?

Are we at the “Get a Helmet” level or “Put On the D**n Helmet” level?

I disagree. Most will take some decongestants or cough drops and get on with life. And it’s probably the best thing frankly as whatever portion of the population that hasn’t somehow managed to get infected will catch the mild cold version and we can get on with making this just another bug.

I haven’t looked. Are 3/4’s of the infected still asymptomatic with the new and improved mutation?

I’m so over the FAs (and some pilots coming to work sick)! That is what your sick time is for!! Covid or not stop coming to work sick!

Now that said give me one good reason to get tested for covid if I have mild cold like symptoms. What does knowing its covid do for me? Now my entire family has to stop doing life because one member has a cold that might be mild covid? If this variant doesn’t kill people why should we be testing or even care if it’s covid?

If you can’t seem to come up with any other good reasons to get tested than here’s one for you: if you test positive you’ll get your flying dropped and pay protected per the COVID MOU.

I thought that expired back in May? I’m not saying you’re wrong...I could be wrong, I’m just not sure.

Yes I thought all the covid MOUs expired in June when the EILs were up.

Also, I’d rather just use the 20hrs for the 4day and go back when I’m better next week than having the company and probably FAA have record of me having covid for whatever shenanigans they may have planned for my medical in future years.

Finished a 4 day early yesterday morning… are we at the “Buy your own hotel once again because the only person we can reach are the chiefs” point yet?

Don’t you guys have a private whatsapp chat to talk about this in, instead of a public forum?

SMH.

¿Por Qué?


…

What is WhatsApp?

If green is normal, blue is 4%, orange is 6%, and red is 8%, what is 12%? I noticed they skipped yellow because that would seem to normal, given our paint color.
-this message was sent from my private whatsapp group​​​

Bravo bravo...the crowd has spoken. Maybe 12% is a compilation of skittles color.

You still get paid for the time lost, although the amount of time you get has been in constant flux.

First time on APC I see

hey some good news for Spirit! Anytime we can stay out of the bed news! Spirit only have a small handful of canceled flights compered to others.

Spirit didn’t want to miss out on the meltdown holiday fest.

Can’t have an industry meltdown without Spirit canceling 10%

amazing reserve rules though. 😂😂😂😂 yeah right

Nobody said they were amazing.

Comprehension of them is another thing

10% is what color on the IROP scale?

Shiny, off white. Roughly the same color as Bendo’s bald pate.

Spirit closed down our Facebook group

lol we have chats. Facebook isn’t great either…

Spirit didn’t close it down, the moderator did because people were taking screen shots and posting them online in an attempt to get others in trouble.

Nothing says welcome to our new hires from your coworkers like this post! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Welcome new hires female or male!!!!!

He's not wrong.

It was a private fb group, not company related, not open to the public. Why not kick the whinny snowflake and solider on? I’m in my base chat etc, but there was some good info on the fb page that wasn’t in the base specific chat etc.

Why I don’t have a FB account. I have no idea what’s being talked about and I’m healthier for it
