What I’m having trouble understanding is that in the CSS award PDF, I’m listed as going from ORD RC to ORD FO. Cool, I held a line I thought...I open up FLICA later and see I’m actually ORD RF...what happened?

Secondly, anyone have a gouge as to how pay reductions will go? Settle in, here goes my long question. I was awarded Captain, got through training / etc, but took a while to get OE, so my pay started 30 days after the award...the companies way of making sure people succeed in upgrade training before paying them CA money (a sore spot, but bigger fish to fry). Likewise, not all 180 Captains who got downgraded will immediately be right seat qualified on July 1st. CPT / Sims / etc still have to e scheduled and completed. Per the contract, rate of pay doesn’t start until completion of IOE (if required) or first day operating the jet in the awarded seat (or displaced seat in this case). How much do we want to bet the company will try and start paying all 180 of us as FO’s come July 1st, instead of the delay the company capitalized on when we upgrade. My point is there should be a bit of time after July 1st where downgraded Captains should still be getting paid as such because of the training delay. Or am I misinterpreting something here?
