CAL Furloughees

[Furloughed80]

A lot of rumors flying around stating a bid will come out in about 2 weeks recalling some if not all CAL furloughees.

I don't want to get peoples hopes up, but I assume some of our furloughed pilots want to stay informed on any recent developments. I really hope this latest rumor is true.

Again, this is just a rumor, nothing official yet. A lot of people are talking though.

Heard in crewroom today for what it's worth, the furloughees are being called in anticipation of recall.

no call to me yet, but I am keeping fingers crossed. i am pretty sure we would have already been recalled had it not have been for the delays due to the seat manufacturer.

Manpower planning said right to my face that you would have been called back on the January bid if the seat problem didn't happen. CAL actually pulled back summer flying to account for these a/c not on property. Hope all furloughs are back very soon. They are NEEDED badly!!!

I don't know anyone who's been called.

They are offering 7 and 11 day leaves w/o pay in June.. recalls are highly doubtfull here at crappy CAL

Yes the May bid with recalls. Now i'm starting the official june bid with recalls and the july bid with recalls and the august bid with recalls and on and on and on.

I think the every other month bid with recalls rumor has been shot down. As they always say, maybe on the next one.

Hot off the rumor press:
CAL system bid next week

You must be listening to the same call as me

 

[Billsflyer]

A flat bid next week helps nobody. This has gone around every other month for the last 6 months. Just because they have a bid does not mean recalls.

Back to my furlough.

Cheers

Latest rumor I heard:

Bid out in 10 days (or 9), whenever. No recalls. Guam shifting and 777 vacancies in EWR. Recalls will happen in August bid.

Rumors, nothing more. Who knows.

Exactly, a bid rumor means NOTHING. I can understand the company planting info, age old union busting technique. I just wish the union would stop with the whole "I would be shocked if no recalls" lines. This just feeds into the companies tactics. I guess they are stomping on the table to cover their a**, when the bid is released with no recalls.

Quit feeding the monster, please.

I'm not trying to be negative, but I am not buying recalls on the August bid. If they don't need to recall us for the summer, they aren't going to need us before next summer either. Yes, I know that we are taking delivery of alot of aircraft, but they will find a way to run the airline as currently staffed unless we give up something for recalls. I hope I am wrong! There are alot of good people out there really suffering because of this game that management is playing. Good luck to everybody! Hopefully this nightmare will be over someday soon!
