(Last year was a good year, 2010 worked out to an average of about $125 an hour.)
Well forgive me, im not familiar with your contract. We have the ability to edit our lines, however we chose to be almost exactly what we want each month. I like this better than PBS because i can work how much i want, when i want, not just "what my senority can hold". Also, i have the ability to bid check airmen lines, where i can get all my trips dropped, be pay protected for the whole month, then pickup an entire month. I can get paid 200 hours for working 90. If i bid a stand up line with 57 hours credit, anything i pick up goes on top of guarantee (75 hours) reguardless of the block. I can bad day worse day trade anything all month with pleanty of open time to chose from. After the 29th of the previous month, anything that is dropped or edited in my schedule for the next month is pay protected reguardless of the reason. In a vacation month, anything i pick up is added onto 75 hours of pay, even if my block is 20 hours. If you guys can do this stuff thats awesome, you truly understand how good it can be
