Default 9E is AFU

So,
Group of 9E guys at fedex jumpseat trying to go home & commute and can't because apparently their (pinnacle's) CASS was down. A couple of us called and got the "we know, IT is working on it.". One asked if they were really there this time of the morning working on it and they had no idea.

And people were having problems finishing the LMS training. I heard of people not being able to do it at work from a company computer as well.

What a joke of an airline...

I'd just not show up for a trip and blame it on IT.

Done.

Crewtrac is down too, maybe didn't pay a bill or fired the guy who knows how to fix it....doesn't surprise me, Staffing at least on the FO side is getting interesting. They are flying the reserves like crazy, they put me on a four day trip last week, changed various out and backs 4 or 5 times the CA flew with 3 different FO's on the last day.

I have a CDO that (as of last night when I last could get on Crewtrac) still didn't have the FO covered. Perhaps I will be getting a paid night off.

KCM is down on the Colgan side. That was fun when there are a half dozen guys standing behind you.

Things are getting interesting on the Colgan side too. FO's are dropping like flies, I see at least one Check Airmen per day flying in the right seat (not doing IOE), MX is becoming ridiculously atrocious (more than usual, believe it or not), and morale is at an all time low. This place is falling apart at the seams! Is it sad to say that I look forward to transferring over to PNCL?

PS. Can someone PM me and answer some questions that I have about the ATL base?

Speaking of MX, on my last two stints of rsv, one airplane had 8 MEL/CDL stickers, two more had four each and one fms was updated early (like the LIDOS) with the aerodata acars, making it deferred. Its getting kind of ridiculous.

Transferring to pinnacle will only be a disappointment if you think its better over here. Remember its the same puppeteers pulling the strings.

Agreed. The entire place is crumbling, what it originally was no longer matters. This whole mess of cards is about done.

The latest airmail from JS definitely didn't help the morale around here either.

I've tried to be optimistic, but the facts are there and everything adds up to us being absolutely screwed. It just sucks all around. I'll give it 100% until the day I leave, but it's not easy knowing what the future holds.
