Airhoss, did they mention anything about why they are putting so many ord ramp folks on part time status and now having trouble loading the a/c on time? Did anyone ask any pointed questions? Been an issue lately and late departure followed by more fuel being burned enroute.

Great answer, geez. I am not worried about getting my chance as I have been trying to get answers for a month now in ord as opposed to waiting for a fuel class without much in the answer department. But hey glad you liked what they told you.

I appreciate that you have maintained character (or the lack of) with your typically snarky remark. I wouldn't think it was actually you if you weren't being defensive and caustic.
Pretty much everybody just wanted the he!! out of there as quickly as possible. Do you honestly think that jabbing at the facilitator(s) is going to change anything? Of course you are welcome to give it a shot. All you are doing is holding up the guys trying to make the 15:45 bus. How is your current quest for answers going BTW?
I said they made some positive and needed changes to the format and addressed some material that needed addressing. Stuff that wasn't addressed in the FET back in the day.

The sooner we all get on the same page the better. They'll always be the detractors but they're irrelevant. Even on the internet.

I thought your response was lame. But thats okay hoss most are used to that at this point. If you want to question my character feel free.
When they are beating up certain work broups, ramp or whoever I find it hard to believe that group would be too worried about fuel savings. Another example would be some of the station for ex, OGG, where they tried to replace them all. Theya can say what they want in a class but actions some of the actions show differently. JMO

I thought my original question was as simple as it could get since you mention something about during the class they talked about how they are bringing and explaining to the rest of the employees about fuel issues.

I'm not offering anything qualitative or any sort of opinion on this training, but this is from the other forum and needs more dissemination.
If you can bid for and attend OET2 in a month when you have a line vice reserve you could possibly get 5 hours add-pay. Sec 9-J-2 is relevant.
• Login to CCS
• Select Trading>Realtime Trip Trades
• Select a date or date range
• Select a base
• Select the blank field above “1-A320” in the Equipment Dropdown box
• Select the blank field above “CA” in the Position Dropdown box
• De-Select “Advert Pickup”, “Advert Mutual”, and “Open Time” in the “Display Options field
• Select “Training” in the “Display Options field
• Click on the “Display Pairings” button and the list of available positions for the date(s) you selected will be displayed. If the date range selected needs more than one page to display all of the available selections, there are page selection tabs at the bottom of the page.
• Check the box to the left of the pairing number for the available position on the date you would like to attend
• Click on the “Pickup” button just above the list of the available pairings dialog box and the “Pickup” page will open and indicate the pairing you are about to schedule
• Click the “Pickup” button and wait for confirmation of the transaction
• If, for any reason, you are unable to attend the selected day, the Crew Desk can remove the training date from your line.
Check your pay register after you see it in your Master schedule; my add pay was already there.
Cheers

That ^^^ is the only reason I took the course this month. I have a line this month I do not have a line next month. As mentioned in my OP. If I am going to have to do this I might as well get paid for it.
