You really didnt answer my question....

Isnt there a ruling that an open time should only have a 4 hr shift..period?

This was a extension...of a shift...

Can we grieve it..you seem to have the answers.

 

[john john]

Shift extension should go by seniority
If no body wants the hours then mandatory shift extension will be done by reverse seniority

Just read my contract

Some interesting reading sent to me by a friend. For all the CWA people, you really might want to see what your dues are paying for...

Apparently the company approached the CWA about delaying our negotiations and the CWA gave in. Imagine that.

WTF?

Why?

Something cooking?

And this is why we should CONTINUE to Retain them?

They want to get the Pilot and FA contract wrapped up before going into ours, from what I hear. My only concern is, why would the CWA not ask for anything in return like say $1 per hour increase? Just sayin

The most important thing will be SCOPE. An extra $/hr or week of vacation won't do much good if most of the jobs are outsourced. For those hubs who think they are safe, imagine what would happen if the EMBs suddenly are treated like express flights!

Anything above 50 seats, be it EMB or CRJ700/900 must be treated as mainline.
