Actually the company trotted out reems of examples from the furloughed United Pilots website in court to make their case that got our nuts squeezed in this injunction to begin with.

Yes it is legal. Sadly, there are those that believe the injunction prevents individuals from doing what they know is right.
For example, I would never fly more than 89 hours on the narrow bodies or over 87 on the wide body side. But that's just me. It would be crazy if everyone did that. Probably even force some recalls...
That's just me though...
Y'all can do what you want.

Gettin bumped is just a desk jockey hall monitor. He is one of those guys sitting in his office in ops. He doesn't fly much but loves to tell everyone he is a "Captain" for United Airlines. He directs his minions to harrass real pilots about KC delays. He loves his management station in life along with the extra pay. It makes him feel above the rest of us. Who knows where he came from. Maybe he is a member of the Viper Mafia slithering their way up through management. If he wasn't doing this he would be wearing mirrored sunglasses and working as a cop

You can go ahead and be your big, tough guy self and act all cool on your big, tough guy forums, but it's not going to change the fact that your keyboard wanna-be-a-United Pilot jockeying is not helpful to MY pilot group.
Nope, never worked in the office. Never taken a JR man. Would bet you good money I have more fatigue calls than you. But I DO look pretty cool in mirrored sunglasses, so maybe you are on to something there.

The pilots that were talking on the website were active United pilots that were back on the property. They were subject to the injunction.

Wrong. You advocated First Officers "Find things on walkarounds to be written up". That is not "something you are not required to do.". You may not be smart enough to know the difference, but the company is. Here's the other thing... Since you apparently aren't a United pilot, let me give you a little perspective. None of my FO's need your help. They all get it. They know how to conduct themselves appropriately at the present time in the present circumstances. Did you think that they would read your keyboard Tough-Pilot routine and all of a sudden decide they need to wake up and start flying the contract?? I haven't had to put my "Jr Manning=No Landing" policy in play for YEARS. Just because they aren't dumb enough to spout about it on a public forum doesn't mean that they don't get it.

You guys can think I'm being Marvin Managment as much as you wish. You obviously don't know me, and how I run my cockpit. I'm not scared of any injunction, and I'm BEGGING for a strike because this piece of crap company won't negotiate the contract we deserve (not you A320 Cap... You don't work here), but I also think its pretty stupid to put things on a public board that could cause another mess for our Union as they negotiate. I take my marching orders on what to do and how to act from my Union, not this company, and CERTAINLY not from some Keyboard jockey who apparently works for another airline

Look, it really doesn't matter. He can be Mr Keyboard tough-guy for all I care. I have yet to fly with an FO that needs his advice. Every single person I fly with is keenly aware of what needs to be done. If anything, it's a few captains that need some reminding.... I had to fly a trip last week some moron Jr. Manned out of the previous day
