Very weird guy in the first place but a very fitting ending to his career. Ed something or other.
That’s crazy. I would just say I meant to drop it off at security and forgot in my rush.

I’m sure he got his job back....right?!?

Why can’t we nonrev while on sick? If my hand is in a cast because I broke it, you’re saying I can’t fly to NY to see some shows? Or what if my specialist is in Denver and I need to fly there for an appointment?

My bad. I was mixing up my pilots stealing stuff from passengers. UFB that's even a thing!

You can non-rev as a pilot if out on sick leave. (Since something’s that prevent you from flying don’t necessarily make you sick, if that makes sense). Other employee groups can’t.

You aren’t able to jumpseat.

Door is open. Showing blocked out. Starting the pay clock prior to door closed and brake release.

Most recent memory was an Eagle guy about to flow to AA and was fired for it. A few minutes of pay for a 30 year career.

Either way I wouldn’t mess with it.
Was very common at Eagle and I've known several to get axed for the minutes of pay.
