A friend works at an on-demand 135 shop. He gets 5 Hard Days Off a month. Lately, due to the Rona, these have been assigned, usually the night before the day that is to be taken as an HDO.
This week the chief pilot wrote an email assigning the following day as an HDO, but through some glitch the email was not received by my friend or anyone else copied on it until two days later, after the assigned day.
The chief pilot maintains that the time the email was sent is what matters.
My friend says that because he was not notified and had no way of knowing it was an HDO, he is still owed an HDO this month.
(sub Question) Is this discussion even worth having, or is just calling out sick a better option on the day?
