ASA March finals

[centralpilot]

You have to be a captain.

That would explain it, although I'm not sure I see a need for that restriction. It makes it hard for the CA to delegate that task. I guess they'll continue to have me do the paper form with my personal cell phone...

No where in the contract is it stated that you must have a cell phone. Is the company paying for your minutes? If not you may want to rethink that option.

It usually isn't my idea, but I won't be complying in the current environment.

Another poor me ASAhole thread?

It's getting embarrassing for many of us at ASA to listen to some of these folks...We are taking Horizon aircraft and CMR flying and yet some of these folks feel the need to get on here and whine...

So lemme get this straight: The company is in the midst of running different solutions as many times as it takes until they're satisfied? So the theory that 'if you're senior enough to bid a trip you will get it' is false? The company runs this software over and over again until they're satisfied means what, the schedules change each time they hit the run button? What? Really? The union sold you snake oil and you bought it. Voodoo bidding. Maybe the computer will melt down and we'll be done with it.

I wish something would melt down. This is gonna suck real, real hard.

(Guess we all just needed to learn how to bid, like ol' 777 says. As usual, we aren't smart enough to figure this kind of stuff out, are we?)

If only 20% of us were pissed with the results we will soon see, I would buy 777's theory. 75%? Maybe not so much. There are gonna be a whole lot of angry villagers. A whole lot.

No, that's not true or accurate. I could explain it, but it's right there in the LOA for you to read yourself.

If the company is in cost saving's mode, I think the pilot's should be also. One way to save would be to shut my cell phone off at work. Use only land lines and see what happens.

 

[johnpeace]

My cell phone's off.

I'm done giving them any favors at all. Performance has to suffer for the folks in the GO to notice that something is wrong.

F/A finals are out before the pilot group finals. Hard to believe the company did not have our finals completed at 12:01 on the 16th, but we won't see them til 16:59 on the 21st.

I was told they'd be published today at 1700 by one of the folks over in A-Tech. Unfortunately it is already past 1700... and no lines.

 

[Av8trix616]

I had to at laugh at this- the schedule for March isn't out, but the red arrows are already posted.

Love the red arrows. They are the only thing we can count on.

 

[DHPFLYN]

Wait where are all the pro PBS people?
I haven't read how the company is working so hard to always make things right. Guess they forgot that already.

 

[spudskier]

I'm still FOR PBS... against the company though... mostly J.Papagiorgio. That list of poor performers isn't gonna get any better.

 

[Flyguy1226]

Where the hell are the damn lines? Why is this taking so damn long?

By the contract they are not required to be published until today at 5PM. If you have something that you know is going to piss off the entire pilot group and thus impact your performance and revenue....would you put it out early?

The torches are going to be lit about 5:01 pm, and March Madness will begin. We won't even have to do anything, but running it like this will automatically kill the performance. Another example of people that have no idea what they are doing running this show.
