Thanks, BV

Wait until they close out the trip and check. I've found they don't ring that stuff up until after the trip ends, in case you get rerouted/sick/canceled. If they aren't there when your time card shows "closed", then call.

Or is he exercising his contractual rights under the pwa? How about a green slip after he/she is full? Violation or contractual right? 3 green might have a little fascism in his dna.

Not true. Full means CS cannot give you another trip or short call. There is no contractual provision stating you cannot choose to fly when you are full.

My view is that anyone YS'ing a trip after being full needs to find a life outside of this job.

More money more time off. That should be the goal of any contract but we've long since lost sight of that.

Great point. And going further, any pilot who flies a green slip is hurting every pilot on property because if people didn't fly greenslips the company would be forced to hire more pilots.

Or they are deciding what is best for them and theirs under the PWA.

Any word on a thaw in allowing pilots to sport a well maintained beard/goatee? I've been on vacation and damn it, I've grown fond of the scruff.

You ever white slip after hitting the ALV? Thought so.

I am surprised no one has challenged the company on this issue. Once they changed the rules to allow beards and assorted other styles for the gate agents and flight attendants I don't believe they can set a different appearance standard for other public contact employees.
