10:30 pm, 200 FO awards still not out..................

Yea, this is a bunch of crap. I'm mad too.

 

[No Delay]

Doesn't matter guys...tomorrow's the end of the world anyway!

I just got my line for the 700, 30 something in the plane. Hands down the worst schedule I've ever had, got the first selection of pairings, the some random act happened, and added 3 and 2 days in all the gaps. 11 days off 96hrs credit, and I bid low threshold. F this place. I 'm praying for the opportunity to give place my walking papers.

We told y'all what PBS was good for.

-Oh well. 86%? Really?

 

[southern cross 7]

I bid single days off, to bunch my flying together and allow for longer blocks of days off. It turned and bit me with this.

I begged all of you not to vote for this. Do you believe me now that you will work more days this year for less pay. And that Chris M. was an idiot for ramming this down everyone's throat with such poor LOA language that the company is exploiting. He should be shown the door.

 

[TEXAN AVIATOR]

If we MUST accept PBS, I'm a believer we don't have to take it; there are many better systems out there than the one you currently have... According to XJT ALPA anyway. But ASA ALPA doesn't like to be told anything they do/did wasn't the best way to go. I just hope guys have the balls to vote no if it's a junk JCBA.

 

[pkunzip66]

Please vote out PBS! This system is nothing but smoke and mirrors.

I am in the last 100 on the CA side and got exactly what I bid for. It is grouped together oddly, but it isn't anything that I shouldn't expect. I got the days off I wanted and even have 2 Saturdays and an entire weekend. Nothing but 3 days, no more than 5 legs, most of them are no more than 3 legs. 14 days off and about 80 hrs.
If you are near the top and not getting what you want, you are not bidding correctly.

 

[mxaviator]

My schedule is not bad; except for one 7 leg day, one 8:10 overnight followed by a 4 leg day. "Safety is our top priority"

I liked the insulting email telling me that I don't understand the award process; with the back-pedaling follow up, "actaully you know it be than we do!"

This place is bi-polar!

I see you bid low threshhold but wasn't the min credit threshold on the 700/900 89 hrs? If high credit 4 days wasn't one of your top preferences what happened to you is a very likely scenario

I'm one the 200 and got what I want.

BTW, get off the soapbox CRJ567 and Cackel. You boys getting all excited to start bashing PBS again.

 

[Trcb777]

I would hate to go back to bidding lines. That system seems so archaic compare to what pbs offers. Now getting the awards out on time is another matter.

I agree. Got exactly what I wanted: bid minimum credit and gave myself a week off in the middle of the month.

I got a week off too. And also a 24 hr 4 day with no more than 4 legs a day. Hadnt seen that in a while

 

[JoeMerchant]

I'm working 6 days in June...2 easy 3 day trips.

I love PBS...An added bonus of PBS is watching crj567 get all worked up over it...:laugh:

 

[701EV]

1week of vacation 16 days off in a row. Then work two 4 day trips with the days off that I picked. PBS works for me.

LOL...I wonder if he figured out how to bid yet

 

[ASAFOE120]

Turned 7 days vacation into 16.
First 16 days of month off, then 2 three days back to back, 2 days off, 4 day, and last 2 days of month off. 20 days off total. Work 10 days next month. No complaints bout pbs from me!

 

[damnflyboy]

Got the days off I needed and the credit wanted. No complaints here.

 

[spudskier]

PBS would be jelly beans and sunshine IF they'd STAFF IAD CORRECTLY No one has more than 14 days off, most don't even have 13. I personally am working 5 four day trips all worth less than 21 hours and three of the 4-day trips have two days off in between. Utter BS! BH, CT, and SH are going to get an earful from me.

Open time has a S***TON of trips that will never get covered, everything will be min staffing... VERY few 3-day trips were available and those that got them had a 2-day or another 3-day tacked on to the end of them. just awful.
