Pilots actually sign in? At United? I am not a rebel, and even i wouldn't do that unless someone can show me in the contract that I have to.
I will sign in right after I put on my hat, assuming I actually knew the location of said hat.

Just saw this week what appeared to be sigh in sheets for wide body flight crews in SFO ops. Is that new too (and not in the contract?)

That is ridiculous. There is nothing written anywhere that says we must comply with a sign in sheet. Who prints them up and places them out for people to sign in? The ladies behind the counter? Do they call you and ask why you didnt sign in if you had a FSB? And what do they do with said sheet at the end of the day? Im not trying to be confrontational or pound my chest with a crappy attitude but you guys needs to knock that off and quit making your own rules and procedures

As far as I know, FSB has not been done in recent memory for wide body. 757 might be the exception. You really can't do it much because of the duty day for most international trips. Some of the domestic trips, yes, but there aren't many of those.

There is no requirement to sign in on a sheet. Anything other than reporting to the airport, is an interpretation. If a domicile has a sign in sheet, that is for their convenience only. If your phone works where ever you are on the airport, as far as I'm concerned, that's good enough.
It's two problems: One that domicile doing it's own thing, and two the union saying: NO, that's not in the contract.
Who monitors the "sign in sheet" what's it used for? What happens if you don't sign in? Does scheduling tell the sign in sheet monitor to expect pilot X at 0000Z time?
I see nothing in the contract that compensates a pilot for sitting field standby. He/she can come by and sit for 4 hours and be un-used and then go home eating the gas money and toll roads. Probably a 6 to 7 hour day when you add it all up, and that's all for free.
