Just read the union email that just came out. Is this what our "goodwill" and compensation for setting the CBA aside amounts to? Since I dont pick up open time or fly on my time off and I just happened to not be flying during that irop I have no grievance to file. So I get no compensation for my Union setting the CBA aside?

The same way people kink the tax code. Totally legal and totally available to only the few in a position to do so.

Why not have rates that rewards everyone and not just the senior guys who can bid inefficiencies and have flexibility to move days off.

It was from the 109 LEC:
Due to contract relief,*goodwill*has been gained as seen in negotiations. Grievances for that period have been paid without question.

The line referenced....
"Due to contract relief, goodwill has been gained as seen in negotiations. Grievances for that period have been paid without question."

Almost zero talk about contract relief compensation anymore these days.
Snap! Beat me to it.

No, you said all instructors are kinking the contract, please tell me how I am doing that. Are you insinuating I am profiting outside of the contract? Are you saying I am subverting the contract? Are you saying I'm getting deals?

Please do not make insinuations, incriminations or accusations without proof.

Relax Francis.
Since you're having trouble comprehending what I wrote I'll rephrase it in the exact same way. All legal. Available to only the senior, the single and instructors. Meaning those that can manipulate their schedule with ease.
We should have a great rate for all. And if you still want to work on your days off then knock yourself out.

You guys have a different biding system from the rest. All legal, just special mission oriented.
