Pizza Hut offers to rehire manager who refused to open on holiday
I'm a line holder, I try and duty in but screen says no pairing to duty in for. I check my schedule and he pairing I'm suppose to do is NOOP! I look in open time and my chopped up pairing is in open time with no pilot assigned to it. I haven't been notifies by scheduling of anything, what are my obligations?

So I'm reserve this month and line holder next. I was on the one day reserve list and got assigned a two day for tomorrow. There was a one day that went out to a GS # 6. Scheduling said they can fly someone into the next month if they are reserve to line holder. I am trying to figure out why I didn't get the one day and the two day go to a GS.
We were going to do Thanksgiving on Sunday since I was on call, but the worst part is I will have to record the Iron Bowl.

I've talked to quite a few pilots who got paid some good coin recently when scheds did incorrect reroute/recovery.

the ALPA scheduling folks have read access to DBMS and can see exactly what happened to your schedule, and when. I'd give them a call on Monday.
I'd also call the skeds to ask their version--don't argue, but a couple of questions won't hurt. If it sounds fishy, ask for the supervisor.
If they dropped the trip with pay for some reason, you should be able to WS/GS for more $.

My guess is the two day GS would have cost the Company more than the one day GS. They will be paying you single pay. I bet it was a question of which one was cheaper.

You seem like pretty smart guy, so I'm surprised you bite on this entry-level, scripted psychological ploy; basically, a "good cop/bad cop" game.
It doesn't matter what flight ops "wants." All that matters is the end result: what's in our paychecks and how many days off we have.
