So now that FO that was slated for upgrade class in the next month or two and getting bypass pay, is now going to upgrade a year from now and is back to normal FO pay rates. Meanwhile new hire CQFOs with lowef time are making twice as much ,money.
A year from now? Really? How did you do that math? This has been out for one day and not an official notification. Let's all take a deep breath and see what happens. I find it hard to believe this announcement will push upgrades a year into the future.
Also, as of this announcement, they can't take away bypass pay. If you had your bid in and a CQFO was hired into a spot you could have upgraded, you should still get bypass pay until you upgrade as your upgrade was bypassed.
