E-SRL and Commuting

Don’t agree with the tone of his post, but I do agree that airports presently provide plenty of opportunity for social distancing. Just don’t over-assign the shifts. The other issue is boredom. For me, I’ll be in the employee lot jamming to tunes. I can be at the gate in 10.

The good news is that it looks like not many are bidding the ESRL’s. SFO 777 FO needs 279 for the 4 month option, they have 14 bidders. Hopefully they’ll realize that a lowball offer with us loaning them payroll dollars until December isn’t going to work and they come back with 50 hours per month and no delayed compensation.

There's no way I'm taking an ESRL. I'm on reserve and with the lack of flying right now, you're all going to be on reserve soon. My airplane isn't even flying in my base. I'll sit at home and collect my 73 hours.
I've PDR'd both SC's I've sat, but as frustrating as it is, those are the price I'm going to be paying for having a job right now. The delta between 50 and 73 pays for a lot of hotels. It doesn't matter whether or not they fix it, because come May, dozens will be on reserve every day.
The union's ability to negotiate anything meaningful thus far is discouraging, but sadly, not unexpected.

Good job on PDR'ing the FSB and SC assignments. Progress is supposed to be made. 👍👍
