Just curious if the CAL guys have had continuous payroll errors like is happening here at UAL?

Since CAL managers took over payroll last August there have been at least three major payroll screwups.

Nov 2011 Screwed up CT State Tax Whitholding and CT pilots were not issued pay to catch up on State witholding

Dec 2011 Screwed up Hourly Pay rates and some pilots were overpaid and some underpaid

March 2012 Screwed up W2 forms and are reissueing forms after many pilots have already filed there 2011 taxes.

I'm sure there were some other payroll errors in there somewhere but I just can't remember them at the time. Can anyone else add to the list and has payroll errors ever been an issue at CAL pre-merger? They sure are screwing up royally now!

I'm sure they will pay my expenses for an amended return.

Small claims court works wonders.

December 2011 Paid out bank time for pilots that had no bank time
February 2012 Paid 1500 pilots correct, tyhe other 4500+ were under over paid from $40-$4000
Then Duesed Profit sharing on 401(k) contribution
Then paid bank time out 10 months early

Issued expense reimbursement under per diem paid on W2

Used Narita instead of Tokyo for per diem reports city allowance

Screwed up profit sharing, small checks to follow for some pilots.

and that is just the pilot group. Similar horror stories for other employee groups

Hundreds of one offs

Have never had an issue before on the Cal side with payroll, don't know how they could Jeff this up any more.
