Re: Is there light at end of the tunnel for us regional FO's
If you ever do call in sick, when they pass you off to the CP, just hang up and send in an email. If your too sick to work, then it should only be a matter of telling scheduling about it so that they can find someone else to cover you.
If the CP wants a sick note, which he probably wont if its your first time, just say Ok, and call up the ALPA rep that covers your location. I was told that them asking for a note the first time is bull. Plus the fact that if they ever do truly want a note, they will be the ones paying for my doctor visit since I dont have any health insurance and cant afford to go to the doctor over a stuffy head that will be gone in a day.
At .... they make you talk to the Chief Pilot every time you call out sick and make you bring in a doctor's note, even if it's your first time calling out.
