Hell I even had to get blood drawn just last week when I went to see the doctor. Turns out it was nothing serious, but still I shouldn't have to go through all of that because my company is too cheap to put up their employees in a clean accommodation.

But did you die?

It's a shell game for the company. They give us a good hotel in Burbank then take away a good hotel in Pittsburgh. They'll just keep shuffling around good hotels and point out how much better it's getting. It's not getting any better and it never will until it Is addressed in the next contract.
And I never said Mesa was catering to the union. But, what I do know is that our ALPA Hotel Committee has received numerous complaints. Some of which were fatigue calls and Part 117 rest requirements because of the noisy, flea bag, trashy, rundown and scumbag hotels.
