Flex furloughs again

[frac pilot]

The problem is, the "recall roster" was a separate memo. Nowhere in the severance agreement was the "recall roster" even mentioned. The memo can be changed at the will of the company, and they don't have to bring back anyone. Ever.

What benefit would they get from not calling you back? You know the business, you have a type, why would they not want you back?

I'm not saying that it won't happen, or that the company would benefit by not doing a recall. I was only stating that the "recall" portion of the paperwork is not binding.

Hosed some more!

You will take a pay cut and love it! Also they gave the rest of the pilot group a reduction in yield to 14.5 days from 16.5 days on top of the 60 guys sent home! Man o man! A little overboard Mr. Greed!

You meant a reduction of days from 15.5 to 14.5. The yeild has never been 16.5. But, I have to agree with the overboard part. You watch when this economy turns, they'll be beging for overtime, and chartering out the wazoo.

Well in another thread, you have some senior guys telling one of the furloughed guys that "we will do every in our power to make sure you never come back"

nice attitude... I dont like the idea of people not getting called back just cause some other pilots didn't like them. I dont know any details, just saying I think it is BS for a senior person to say that to someone just let go.

What thread?

The horribly named "NO furloughs at flex" thread. http://forums.flightinfo.com/showthread.php?t=121650

Near the end is the post I am referring to

Yep yield goes from 15.5 to 14.5. Guarantee pay goes from 16 days to 14 days. That equals a pay cut. I wonder if anyone one else in the company is taking a pay cut. How about you Mr. Greed???? I wouldn't have a problem if everybody was getting a cut to help out the team. But picking on one group is NOT right.

I would hope they wouldn't get any overtime takers until everyone is back that wants to be, but I know there's pretty much zero chance of that.
