Thought I would move this here.


Anyone else really bugged by not getting your pay raise on your date of hire, but rather your date of flight. Northwest is the only airline that I have seen do this. This only affects about 300 guys since the rest of the fnwa are on 12th year pay and south guys get paid on there date of hire. My hire date is 9/24/07, but since the first guy in my class finished OE on Nov 15th, we don't get our next years pay raise until three months past our hire date, 12/30 paycheck. That is a lot of money lost over those 12 years. I was mad when this got grandfathered into the contract, but more mad when I was told by ALPA they didn't want to waste capital on this fight for only 300 people. Let's fix this.
