Most airlines have a pilot working in the OCC 24/7. It's about time we grow up as an airline and provide the support system we need. I do not know about you, but I like the idea of having some support from the pilot side in the OCC.
Once they push through all the new schedulers they won't need a pilot in OCC. Besides, if they really wanted to show concern for our interests it would be a union rep giving his or her opinion when they try and screw over a new hire that doesn't know the contract.

The story I got was that one of these pilot working in scheduling started hassling a new hire on reserve because he refused to accept an assignment until his hotel was booked purely because just days prior he got to his overnight and had no hotel and ended up buying his own. The "scheduler" replied with "are you holding the company hostage?!!!"

If they're line pilots, are these the guys we want to walk a picket line with if it comes to that?

Line pilots and instructors for sure
To be more accurate said rsv pilot accepted the assignment and called the hotel to confirm his reservation and they didn't have one. He then called scheduling back and got a fellow pilot on the line. That's when he told the story of having to buy his own hotel the week before and that he wouldn't be going this time without a confirmed reservation. That's when the "scheduler" started getting irate. Absolutely unacceptable!!!!

We still have pilots in scheduling helping out after the company would not match our contract demands?!?!? WTH! The moment management didn't agree to the demands of the contract offer should be the moment we stop offering extra help.
