Get some balls like the guys calling in sick. Sure it sucks for a little while but take it like a man. FATIGUE.
 
I think Scott Hall is a great person to have at ASA. My experiences with him have been positive, and I understand he has been instrumental in granting leaves for people to attend FFDO trainings.

I agree. In my observances, Scott has been instrumental in securing leave for pilots who otherwise would have been SOL. At the end of the day, Scott is management. Management naturally has an agenda that is diametrically opposed to the pilot group. It'll always be that way. What separates Scott from the rest of our insufferable management team is that he has never, to my knowledge, lied to the pilot group. That goes a long long way in my book.
 
I moved up 131 numbers in the last 6 months. I love it. They can't extend me either. Sorry for you guys that got extended.
 
ASA connection - this morning

ASA flight operations management today sought relief in the Status Quo of our current contract to give raises to new hire pilots. Management stated they are having difficulty attracting qualified applicants to ASA.

After consultation with the voting members, MEC Chairman Captain David Nieuwenhuis responded to managements request by stating quite simply, “If management wants to attract quality pilots to ASA – settling the remaining open issues of our entire contract will both attract new pilots and stabilize the current pilot groups’ frustrations with management.”

While the MEC is all for working together for win-win situations, we are not interested in carving out special treatment for one segment of the group (new hires) while the remainder of the pilot group have been waiting almost 5 years for pay raises and much needed work rule changes.

One additional point; previous statements by management like, “zero-net-gain contract,” and “we need to be the second lowest paid pilots or we’ll shrink-and-die,” do not help attract quality pilots either.

Maybe this will kick start the end of negotiation

doubt it but... who knows

This deserves it's own thread, but I'm sure HelloDooshman would have a fit it another was started.

As for new hire raises, F**k that. If they want to they can raise new hire pay in our next contract.

You reap what you sow, Brian. And Charlie. And Jerry.
 
It's about time that someone at this company helps out people who could use time off. What are you complaining about?

Also, I'm willing to bet there is a bit more reason to each example you used...

I'm not complaining about it because I'm not the one being extend or drafted. See years ago, before your time, we had the same problem of short on pilots, so the smart people know what they have to do to protect their days off.

I guess if you need ANY time off, since we are extending and drafting at ASA, it will have to be in the form of an LOA. Start filling those requests out pronto!!!!
