Why Can't Expressjet Reserves Get Consistent Golden Days Off?

[dojetdriver]

I think they are maintaining the confidentiality agreements

Sigh.........how quickly some forget.

the fact that our union leaders negotiated this excellent PBS system earns them 100% of my support.

Thanks for the laugh.

If the union is afraid of gossip maybe they should have a presence in the crew lounge. That, "you guys can call your reps" BS doesn't cut it. There needs to be a physical presence to form an efficient union. I say gossip away if they aren't going to be around to set the record straight. Especially if it is a rumor that everyone already know is true even if they haven't come out and said it.

I don't know about the CRJ Side but the ERJ MEC comes around to the bases and answers questions in the crewrooms plus the local LEC meetings plus the occasional conference call.

And if you can't make those, it's almost freakish how QUICKLY a rep will email you back with a question/concern.

That is just nooooooot gonna happen on the CRJ side.

Not until the current regime is voted out

maybe the erj guys can start representing the crj guys if they are not getting satisfaction from their own.

I feel well represented. Apparently its too difficult to pick a phone these days, but not a problem to go onto FI and type out poorly worded whining about an issues that exist in rumor form only.

I agree. If I call them, they call right back. If I email them, they email me right back. I love our PBS and under no circumstances do I want to go back to line bidding. Other than a few malcontents most everyone i talk to about things are happy at Asa. Of course there are things here and there, but that is any job. The guys b!tching the most will be the same guys bitching when they move on to delta, swa, etc. i feel well represented.

I just want to know why they decided to give themselves 6 hours a day of pay and not 7.... 7 is more than 6.

This is pure foolishness. Stop complaining about your union leadership's pay. If you guys had a clue how much work goes into those positions you would see that the pay is more than justisfied.

I admire their patience. To work that hard and then to be insulted by the pilots you represent who think you play golf all day is very depressing. I try my best to tell them most FI whiners are the vocal minority.

Mark me down as happy with our reps. This recall is just the usual malcontents. Nothing can make them happy.

And when the pilots who proposed the recall of each LEC officer is asked what their facts are for demanding recall they respond that they wont reveal their "playbook" and all will be revealed at the meeting. Im like, Child Please.....

While it is true we can not accurately speculate about what the JNC is negotiating, I would suggest that everyone both on reserve now and all FO's that plan on being captain some day vote based upon the reserve section.

I guarantee you that after 3+ years on reserve you will wish you had held their feet to the fire now instead of continuing to hear them give excuses why they couldn't do any better.

Our union (crj side) completely sucks when it comes to standing up for our junior pilots.
