CC 52 (much less than 7-7 base salary and a was a fairly senior award prior to the new incentive pay program)
CC 72 (slightly more than 7-7 in base salary)
CC76 (a fair amount more than 7-7 base salary)

Clear as mud?

For me, the major drawback to CC schedules is not knowing what days you will be working until the 15th of the month prior.

I have been on 7-7 for more than 15 years and will likely never bid any of the CC schedules. If they ever offered a fixed 8-6 or fixed 6-8 (please, please, please) I would likely alternate two trimesters of 8-6 and one of 6-8.
