That's your opinion, but JA's done during the relief period absolutely count against your five for the year. Either way, it's 2016 and JRMs are reset. It's all water under the bridge.

That's true it doesn't matter anymore. It's not my opinion. That was a fact.

No JRMs for 2015 and thinking none for 2016. Glad the junior guys are getting some help with their awful pay rates.

Just a few of the fine points.

We'll get money or rules, but not both. We have AWESOME work rules! And if you don't enjoy being here, vote with your feet.

Happy Saturday!😁

Money or rules? ***? I'm a little scared to see what rules we're willing to give away to get more money.

We do? Exactly what do we have that is so awesome besides transition?
I guess the lines the last few bid periods are awesome in your eyes also.
No long call reserve, no premium pay other than JM and that will stop as they utilize more reserves and staffing catches up.
We will be doing recurrent from home for the most part soon, so we lose our ability to create conflicts that month and lose credit.
We have no red eye override, we are flying 228 pax around for basically the same as we do for 145. No ability to sell back sick time, hotels that we have little control over, no ability to pick up trips if you bid a reserve line.
It isn't bad by any means here, but I know that colleagues in the same position at other majors work less and earn more for the same thing we are doing. Sure, there are pilots around here that do really well, but it is few and far between and you really have to work the system and whor3 yourself out to make the same as a legacy pilot who only works their schedule.
So enlighten me on what is great besides transition and 4 days off?
I would like to see what we would be offered if we gave transition up and went pbs. If it would be real $$, I bet many would think about it. As the lines are getting 5hityy around here and pbs would almost be welcome.

Totally agree with you! Best plan yet
