Well vacation doesnt count, but mup + pay protection is a cba violation if I remember correctly. Playing socialist's advocate, didn't you take 2 ja's from fellow pilots, and take a line away from nk pilots yet to be born (hired)?
Also, you "passed" on a ja during vacation? MAJOR CBA VIOLATION.
Careful you don't loose your IA club membership

I'm not sure JoeyMeatballs said he was on Spirit Vacation, just on vacation with his family.

Transition, vacation, one JA and two trips with MUP & pay protection for dropped trips.
Definitely not normal. Brought my 2015 average monthly credit to 115/month.
FWIW still equates to less than industry average.
Would have hit 200hrs but passed on a JA. Vacation with the family
****should be 183, I'm missing two days of MUP

My problem with the 150% is that it was given away by a bunch of socialists. In return for that, we got the pay scale you see on your paycheck twice a month. Had they gotten something of substance I think people would be happy with no 150%
If I were a manager and read Lobaeux's post, I'd think you were getting a pretty good deal.

Since they are here, and I'm paying them, they may as well do their job.
Socialists are always better at collecting money than handing it out, so the logical position would be to minimize their position.

There are plenty of non union 135, 91 and even a few 121 carriers that you could go work for. Just think of it, you could negotiate your own contract and live the libertarian dream!
Except that your beloved "association", unlike all other true unions is ok with someone with 30 years experience starting at the bottom. In our case for 37.50/hr. Companies don't care because it's pass/fail. FAA doesn't care as long as planes don't fall out of the sky. In this highly regulated industry there is no way to differentiate yourself (just like the socialists like it) therefore there are only two types of airline pilot. Those with knee pads and those without.
