That’s illegal, and most Spirit pilots who are still here know and remember being sued by Spirit for doing that in 2017. You were probably still in grade school when the ones you are looking down on were learning hard lessons that you now judge us for not doing.

Recalls are happening because of attrition. One or 2 pilots turning down trips or picking up trips probably doesn’t move the needle. Whatever amount becomes noticeable also becomes fuel for litigation.

listen, I’m not saying pick up, or don’t pick up, but lets be honest, that was the only thing that actually got the company to the table. We got a Contract shortly after.

Maybe. My point of contention is the loudest and most righteous are usually the ones covering or projecting their own actions.

Everyone has a reason for doing what they do, from the outside it can seem selfish. But even selfish looking behavior can be beneficial to others. 2 things can be true at once.

Just fly the contract and don’t make so many assumptions or judgments about what you think others are doing or their true intentions are.

It’s illegal to only fly your awarded line and not pick up premium on your day off?

An individual pilot…no. But as collective group, a work action, the type that causes leverage, way outside the norms….yes.

sounds crazy, but your reaction was the same that I had too when it happened.

Its hard to prove, but its called Withdrawal of Enthusiasm (WOE) and that is an illegal work action.

Yup, and a certain executive who went to the court in 2017 is still in the c suite to this day.

Also in the 2017 TRO there were screen shots from this very website actually.

They really reached then. NK pilots, in general, are some of the most pro-QOL pilots out there. The norm here is to work min days or even dropping trips and going below MPG. I don’t get it, but I’m just a pilot at the end of the day

Well, the bigger issue is ALPA had said repeatedly (for months) that we were short staffed and it would lead to yet another meltdown. It came to a head when there was a brawl in FLL and the Media picked up on it and that was that, then all of a sudden it was a problem. We also had a website for the Chokers and absolute morons who told Schedulers they refused to accept JRM trips until we got a contract. Some even put it down on the Notes screen or whatever it was for company to see. In typical Spirit management fashion, they created the mess then blamed the Pilots and used a few screenshots on here and some other things to sue us. It was ridiculous. That was like the 3rd or 4th Major meltdown I experienced at NK and literally nothing changed either time. The best is when long after COVID ended they still let the Schedulers work from home, that was another brilliant move. After waiting on hold for literally hours you had someone answer the phone while their kids were yelling the in background.

Anyway, the only reason NK still exists is because the Pilots consistiently go above and beyond to compensate for horrific mgmt. There is no way NK would recover from a 2017 type meltdown.

The one without common sense that decides to create that website was the one to be blamed for that. It would've been very difficult to prove, but no. Let's highlight everything.

Hypothetically speaking, you don't need to go around telling pilots what not to do when someone is furloughed. Things can happen without whispering a word. Just look back at history. I think we are smart enough to not do stupid things.

I'm not looking down on any fellow pilot. I have an opinion that the reason given is BS and I'm going to say it. You can keep your "grade school" comment, swing and a miss. Like I said, it was a ****ty move and it's moot now.

Go tell the recall peeps that you were thinking about them when you(or whoever) were banking 150+ credits. You were saving the company and it was all for them. Smh. You ever thought that maybe, just a slight maybe, they would've been recalled sooner if it wasn't for some? Even a slight chance. It is what it is, I guess.
