You seem to have reading comprehension issues, so I'll try to make it as clear for you as I can. I have never said, nor has anyone else made any reference to what a recruiter said vs reserve times, upgrade times, or any other QOL issues that obviously change weekly. I am very familiar with how this industry works, but what we are upset about is how we have (or haven't been) compensated. How we were told we would be compensated and how we have been compensated are two separate things, that is MOU is supposed to address.
Do you understand? Or do I need to explain to you in even more elementary terms.

Dude seriously stop making excuses for them to not be forthright. That crap was going on all over the industry for years, as evident by the countless stories I've heard from Captains. I didn't say I was promised anything, but the picture they painted wasn't accurate, and then they acted like....I don't want to get banned. In recent years pilots have caught on to that stuff though so it may be changing.
Hey congrats, TSA worked out for you, you think it's great post it. I'm going to post how my experience with them sucked. And I'll post it whenever I feel like.

My guess is with your attitude you'd have been dishonorably discharged.

You're guess would be wrong, and I have the honorable discharge to prove it.

When I first started at TSA, I was told that I would be on reserve for 1-2 months (because at that time when I interviewed, things were moving at that speed). After i finished training I was on reserve for 12 Months. No recruiter can tell the future. They can only go by what is happening currently. During my 12 months of reserve I was flying my butt off. Crediting less than 90 hours a month never happened unless you didn't volunteer to fly. I guess I should be upset and up in arms because I was told I would be on reserve for 1-2 months??? No! This is the industry i'm in and things like this would be expected. It could have gone either way. Now that movement with new A/C arriving people on property are going to see rapid movements. I know one person that went from most junior in base one month to holding a line the next (April-May). Im happy to be here at TSA. The people I work with everyday are a great group of people (pilots/FA).

No ones saying things don't happen in the industry that the company can't control that will change things. I understand that. It's when its a blatant mid representation, which has happened a lot in this industry. UNLESS something DRASTIC happens, if a company tells u you'll be on reserve for 2 months and it ends up being 12, they either can't plan, have made no effort to inform their recruiters, or they're lying. Nothing drastic happened during my time at TSA.
