This all could have been fixed by offering Double Time pay for work over a holiday as important as Christmas...just like some other airlines do. But noooooooo...management had too much of a hard on for that. That might cut into their bonuses. So there you have it. NPA is in court filing legal injunctions to stop this blatent contract violation cold.
AFCitrus...spare us the mega-koolaid nonsense. I see that your only experience prior to AirTran was in the military. Welcome to the real world son. Get your head on straight. You are dealing with Lorenzo-style management who doesn't give a rat's a$$ about you, your QOL, or your contract.
Witness:
1. Reassignment pay violation
2. Reserves assigned trips outside 48 hours violation
3. No CASS yet
4. Forced trips on days off violation
5. and on and on....
Management created this problem. Management needs to be held accountable...just like you are for everything on the line. All they had to do was put in a parameter within Flica that limits the amount of open trips on a holiday using some sort of fair ratio that was agreeable to all parties. But in their typical Orwellian information restrictive attempt to not share anything with you and keep you in the dark, they pulled another knee-jerk reaction like this.
A person can talk about the consequences of touching a fire all they want. But until you actually experience it, you don't have a true understanding or respect for its consequences.
If flights need to be cancelled and thousands of pax. stranded so that management can see the result of their stupidity and the idiots they appointed....then so be it. It has to stop somewhere. The blame rests with management...period.
Follow the current contract to the letter. Do not waive a single word!! You want your new contract most riki-tik? Then stand up and show solidarity with your brothers and with your union!
