The thought of losing vacation makes me sick, sick to my stomach I tell you. Hmmm, whats this, sick time, oh well guess I'd better call off the trip.

I guess a bunch of pilots don't do that, but I'm surprised they don't.

So another friend who is on vacation in Florida today received a call telling him that he needs to come back to work immediately.

Why on earth would he answer the phone on vacation?

 

[Pilot124]

Why on earth would he answer the phone on vacation?

He didn't. The guy at the front desk informed him he could not check into his room till he calls scheduling.:smash:

 

[front9]

What?...Wait....if the dude is on vacation and checking-in to a hotel that he paid for how can the hotel hold your room hostage? F-Mesa and their crew schedulers!

Dude it was a joke but I have heard from buddies they will not let you check in to your room on overnights if you don't contact CT to be J/A.:smash:

 

[Boris Badenov]

F-Mesa and their crew schedulers!

Please. "Crew Trackers" is the preferred nomenclature. I submit to you that this is not an accident.

Everyone who took a job at Mesa knew they where bringing down the industry! There is no excuse, so good for them!!

 

[relief tube]

exactly!!!!.....loosing vacation sucks but the part of me that doesn't respect the people working for mesa is revelling in this.

Considering Mesa?

H. 1. Once scheduled, vacation may be canceled by the Company only as the needs of
the service require, e.g.:

a. Assignment to a training class which covers the time in question.

b. Change to another piece of equipment or another position, such as Captain
versus First Officer, if the applicable vacation roster is full during the
period in question.

c. Release of a pilot with a military obligation when notification is after the
roster is full.

d. Unforecast expansion; however, if it becomes necessary, cancellations will
be made in reverse order of seniority.

2. For instances as stated in I.1., above, the Company will give at least four (4)
weeks prior notice before canceling a vacation. For instances other than as stated
in I.1., above, which are beyond the control of the Company, the pilots' MEC
Chairman will be given as much notice as possible before canceling a vacation.
Said notice will be in writing.

3. Canceled vacations will be rescheduled at a mutually agreeable time or at pilot
discretion canceled vacation will be transferred to a pilot’s vacation bank, or
cashed out.

a. A pilot whose vacation is canceled due to a training assignment as per
Section 23 will, upon the completion of training, bid for open vacation
time in his new status and equipment. In the event no open vacation time
is available in his new status and equipment, canceled vacations will be
added to the pilot’s vacation bank, or cashed out.

4. If due to Company cancellation of a pilot’s vacation, for reasons other than a
voluntary training event, and the pilot suffers the loss of a non-refundable deposit,
the pilot will be reimbursed by the Company for such loss upon documentation.
Pilots will inform the Company at the time of cancellation of such commitments.


Dosen't take a lawyer to realize that they don't have the right to do that! Don't worry though I am sure you have a good reason to apply to Mesa. So tell me all about it when you are a 3 year 3 month CRJ F.O. wondering where your fast upgrade is.

the Dog is a bible carrying man he wouldn't work for the devil.

Just for the record:

1. Is Mesa hiring and are they able to fill the classes?

2. What is the general pilot group thoughts on the mess that is going on with the courts in Hawaii?

3. Are there any rumors of Mesa buying another airline that is based in CVG?

4. How long are vacations cancelled?

 

[labbats]

I don't have much sympathy for anyone who took a job at Mesa. You knew it was a dirtbag operation to begin with, now get out or take your medicine.

A buddy of mine went there and left. I know about how that place works and anyone who would stay after the one year commitment basically voted for that POS contract.

 

[OPECJet]

I hope like hell you guys shut that place down for a day....

We laugh it up every day in the crew room.

No. We will have no money for that after HI and Aloha get done with us. We are down to 177M from over 300M when those rumors surfaced.
