Gatorbird -
You are so benevloent! I guess you are doing all you can for me and all the rest of us on the streets. How could I possibly ever repay you for your hard work.
Get over yourself. If you didn't have a job and had to work on an asphalt paving crew or dig ditches to pay your bills right now you might have different opinion of some pilot complaining about only 13 days off. Typical pilot.
And you're right, I just took whatever job was thrown my way. And flying a big new airbus - WOW!
Oh I do hope since you are helping all of the furloughed pilots so much that you haven't picked up open time or answered your phone on a day off. What are the odds on that one?
Easy with the accusations your throwing around there, man.
First, you're an idiot. What pegs me in your eyes as someone who picks up opentime/answers my phone when all of my posts on this board center around my protection of my time at home? Are you paying attention?
Have you noticed that this pilot group authorized to pay your insurance coverage premium? So tell me again what I'm not doing for you? And yes, I voted for it.
You know what else I'm doing for you? I'm showing up for work. I'm getting flights out on time. I'm doing it safely and professionally. I'm giving lost/confused passengers directions. I'm helping to keep this airline running so you will have a job to come back to one day, if you so choose.
By the way, if this management team had followed the contract, we would have needed 11 additional crews to cover for the 4-day off language. Maybe you'd have been in the bunch. Don't thank us though, jerk, we're just trying to keep this a good place to work for US and YOU!
