House spare bedroom because the company is cheap, tried to shake me down on what the FAR concerning Uninterrupted Rest means.  The FAR doesn't even apply to them & here is a medcrew bully letting me know how is meant to be interpreted.  Management letting them get away with it.

you're letting him get away with it. 

If he is actually interferring with your sleep or sleep pattern then you should not accept a flight without the required rest period. 

If he isn't interferring with your rest (just being an annoying a##hole) then it sucks to be you, I'd look for another job.

Medcrew own the managers and the company can't keep pilots is the result.  Pilots are attacked behind their backs by medcrew and visibility upfront by management.  Pilots walk away...

Trying to force everyone into a sardine can in order to save money.  Everyone sharing one bathroom, people coming & going all hours, TV's, talking on the phone, slaming doors, cooking & laundry at all hours.  

Don't put up with it & let them lable you as not a team player or whatever their position allows them to call you.

that no one wants to live in and not have to include travel time (not local in nature) into the pilot duty time.

As such, I'm not going to "room" with anyone on my off time.  Lot's of jobs out there.

If they could do all of those things then they would.  They're not "giving" you anything, they are doing what is necessary to staff the base. 

One of my requirements is housing without a room-mate while off-duty.  It's not negotiable...you don't provide it, I'm gone.  Seems to be working fine.

Dismissed.

for a CRASHPAD.   It is a LUXURY.   Tax Free.   If they provided you housing, it would be a TAXED income for you (added to your total income).

They love to get in your business, watch and make assessments about everything.  If you can't decouple from medcrew on your 10 hours off time rest (locking yourself in a room is not crew rest) if medcrew are outside of that door, leave that company immediately don't even give them the courtesy of notice.
