In an effort to get feedback on how our 5 and 5 schedule is going for everyone working it since we’ve been on this longer than most would have expected, we have some quick questions.  We would basically like to know if you think we should consider rotating the day and swing shifts, or stay on straight days/swings instead of rotating for future unpublished pay periods.  And, should we consider re-soliciting crew preferences (Days, Swings, Mids) for future unpublished pay periods.  Under COVID guidelines we won’t be able to swap from A crew to B crew and vise versa.  Also, we would need to get management buy in to be able to enact any sort of change if the majority wants to rotate and/or re-solicit preferences.  The questions for these changes are for the remainder of this year starting with one of the future unpublished pay periods.  As of right now this is just a solicitation of feedback and no guarantee of us being able to change anything if the majority wants to.

To be clear, if we are still going to be 5 and 5 in January 2021 we have every intention to re-solicit preferences before then for that year anyways since we normally bid schedules once a year. Thank you!
