Calling in sick /CASS

[fowingman]

Calling in sick, obvioulsy you woulnd't fly on your own carrier if you want to travel, or commute somewhere, but with CASS now are you at jeoprady for you own company finding out? I have heard that when the airline you are trying to travel on, runs you through the cass system it pings your own airline to check something (?). Are you just better off buying a ZED (untraceable) than jumpseating and using CASS)
--please only real comments not stupid flame, serious question--- thanks!

Yes your airline can see when you're cass checked. I was cass denied one day and called the company to double check everything was OK and he was telling me all the times I was approved, saying he didn't see me denied. (the agent must have messed up.) but anyway, he knew stuff like airport, terminal, airline, time, but not which flight.

I would think you could fly home to see your doctor if you needed too. Every time I call in sick is just for the days off anyway, I'd love to see them try to fire me for being sick. I would think a wrongful termination suit would follow.

I dont' know how your company does things, but at some company's they would just wait for the pc check and give you a pc check you will never forget. Then after that they will give you a line check and find stuff wrong. then after that they will find a small thing to fire you.

that is how they do it with documentation that it had everything to do with job performance and nothing to do with you calling in sick.

Which is why it pays to work at an airline with a union.

If your too sick to fly, your too sick to fly regardless!

So you can call in sick to go fishing?

Does it "Ping" them, yes. That being said, one hand doesn't necessarily talk to the other...yet. Just be smart and be careful. If you are doing the right thing, it doesn't really matter. I know, everyone always has a story about some dude somewhere who did nothing wrong and got the boot. Now back to the World Series.

That's completely false and irrational.

So your doctor puts you on meds which may cause drowsiness, you arent legal to fly the airplane, but there is nothing keeping you from riding in the back.

Soooo, if I banged in sick while on a trip, I should fork out the moeny for a nice clean hotel room stocked with medication as well as rent a car to go see a local physican?

Sounds way more logical than commuting home.

I'm guessing you are a CP or a DO at a regional somewhere?

Yeah, I know, commuting is choice. If you are one of the doosh bags that believes that, well.....

Is that how your virtual airline does it when you call in sick and delay a virtual ORD-DSM round trip?

 

[Taxilight]

When you check in for a jumpseat, a CASS query (Pilot Name, Airline, Time, etc..) is recorded in the employee's airlines CASS database.

Unfortunately management is now using it as a disciplinary tool unless it is excluded under your CBA or agreement.

My company didn't know what city I was in, while I was on a trip a couple months ago. For some reason I don't think they will put 2 and 2 together when you fly on another carrier.

Ha, that's rich brother. I wish someone would've told my FO last week...he attributed it to cockpit allergies.....stay the fvck at home, you homopheliac!!!
