Who got the the call today, Dec. 22, letting you know that you will work a normal day, Dec. 23? What BS. I think I am feeling sick, again!

Anyone who thinks they are going to work a normal day on the last day (non-Sunday) before Christmas, shouldn't be in this business.

When the change comes the day before? Hell ya! Waiting to see what the pay will be. Oh, I already know. Standard day rate. Late.

We were told weeks in advance to plan on it. Most of the trips are out & backs, too. 24 hours from now, peak will be no more and the celebrating will begin... :beer:

You can always say no!

I know, easier said than done.

 

[flyalot]

No! Not in the vocab for AMF. Just mad that we as a base found out today. Dispatch just let me know that it will be a half day. Makes things a little better. Not much, but a bit. Fly safe tonight.

Last year I was done by 10 in the AM. That was nice, still sucked to work on Sat. and x-mas eve.

 

[flyalot]

10 a.m. not real bad. I will get back around 2p.m. Long legs! Oh well. Last year no complaints. The schedule was printed.

Consider the customer and be thankful they gave you 24 hours to fume about it. That's pretty good for them. Pretty soon you just learn to quit being surprised by anything they do. Hell, if they showed up with the cans on fire and wanted to load the boxes by hiking them between their legs it wouldn't be a huge shock. Entertaining, but not overly surprising.

Wasn't it posted on the schedule at your base? We were told to expect a normal day weeks ago and kind of assumed it anyways.
