Altrnate Crew Pairing model at ASA

[Abernathy]

crj567 is proof that some pilots just like to complain about everything.

It's that complaining that screws it up for the rest of us.

ASA put together a nice ready reserve room with a flat screen, dvd player, recliners, computer and desk. Now people are asking for an XBOX or PS3. People asked for a workout room and ASA put one together with some workout equipment, and I've heard whining (to SH even) that the equipment is too old, and "what's the point in getting sweaty before we go to work".. We used to have great hybrid lines with partial reserve days and partial trips (can't remember what they were called--build up lines? conversion lines?)--someone bitched about something about it and that's why we don't have them anymore.

Maybe just let some of the silly stuff go. As far as not being paired up with the same FA or CA on every leg, who gives a sh**. Really..

I've said it before, but I find it funny and ironic that all you guys whine and complain so much about people you think are whining and complaining

actually on second thought we probably had to negotiate hard for that ready reserve room. point is still valid, though.

 

[ohplease!]

Sure you are! I bet your gf is a fa huh.

she sure is...with his wonderful personality do you know how he gets her to come into the flight deck to see him?.....he puts a twinkie on the glare shield and greases the door jamb.

Her? I was thinking he calls 'him' up! :laugh:

You really are an insufferable tool. How many other airlines actually send flight attendants to the hotel ALONE? At least at the majors, they travel in groups.

DAL splits them.

If it's such a big deal for the FAs have them talk to their unions reps and have their language changed in their contract.

That is kinda my point. The fitty only has ONE FA, and she has to travel by herself. Can anyone else see how this could be a problem in some places? For example-DHN or OAJ? Gen Lee's toothless pappy is the driver in DHN-and we all know how ethical that old buzzard is.

-Whatever-no one will care until something bad happens.... Certainly this pairing model causes a whole hell of a lot of needless confusion about where everyone is and when we will all make it to the same plane.

-Only when your mom is my FA....oops. I think I just may have let that cat out of the bag!

You have a choice if your so worried about the FAs. Wear pants, fly planes...wear skirts, be a FA and help them change their work rules! Is it the pilots battle? Nope.

 

[ohplease!]

if my mom is your girlfriend, you're one sick dude! Damn man, TMI
