I don't see how anybody can EVER get j/m'd.
I've never been called yet, but I have the perfect answer in mind.

"Oh, sorry Mr. Scheduler, I've just taken my first sip of beer. If you'd have called me 10 seconds ago it would have been all good, so sorry... try me again tomorrow". Not a god damn thing they can say to you except "well then good day to you, sir".

Yeah, I tried that once in my Comair days. They transferred me to the CP who told me to stop drinking and report in exactly twelve hours.

They can suck my left nut... These are MY days off and if I want to enjoy a few adult beverages in moderation then I damn well will.
 
I've seen at other airlines where people pick up open time with brothers and sisters on furlough. I can say I haven't seen that here and certainly hope not to.
 
Tuesday night they broadcast in operations a plea for crewmembers to volunteer.

At the time I was thinking "Why would someone who wasn't already on duty be hanging around operations?"

I was headed home at the time to start a group of days off. Perhaps if Delta displayed any respect towards their employees' needs at Comair, those employees would be more interested in showing respect for Delta's customers' needs.

Delta's best slogan ever: Good goes around.

I recently flew with a captain who was complaining that CS has been "hiding" open time again, and he was trying to pick up as much as possible before the Holidays.
 
We had this problem at Mesa. They bought crew trackers cell phones for junior assignments.

Step 1. Is this a recorded line?

No.

Step 2. Accept whatever assignment they give you.
Step 3. Go on with your life.
Step 4. Deny being notified.

It will stop very quickly
 
Its pretty simple. Never answer your phone if its a number you don't know. I never answer calls that are "blocked," "unknown," or any number not saved in my phonebook. If its something important, they will leave a message. If its scheduling, don't call back.

I agree. I never answer the phone if the above happens. CS has gotten desperate lately.
Monday night, I was notified of a trip that starts at 7pm on Tuesday. Tuesday morning rolls around and at 11am, CS calls my cell phone 4 times, the last time they told me they gave me an SD because I refused to call back....when I'm not liable to answer my phone at all because I'd previously been notified.
I just called a CP and he cleared it all off with no problems.
