I ran the numbers and even if you had 95 hours of credit a month for 8 months straight you'd still make less with the new $35.81/($36.25 in Jan?) pay. And as we become fully staffed those critical trips won't be as common.
So I'm glad they did this, it's awesome to see pay going up.
This is true. For people who are out of training, or have been here for more than 2 months, the bonus is the higher paying option. You will have to wait longer to get all of it, if you factor waiting for the tax return.
