1. Who you work for
2. How long (your seniority)
3. Your monthly average duty & flight hours
4. Your current pay
5. Your benefits (jumpseating, non-revs, 401K, etc)
6. Does your company pay for things like hotels, etc. while on a trip?
Please note that we are looking for specifics, not just answers like "my pay sucks." But I do understand and respect your privacy, so if you don't want to post this stuff on the fourm, or don't want others seeing it, feel free to PM it to me. Regardless, this information is SOLELY for this project, and will not be used in any other way. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to let me know. Thanks in advance for the help.
1. Piedmont
2. 2 years
3. Furloughed.....used to average 50-80 flight hours and 250-350 hours away from base
4. Unemployment.....would be $32 an hour + change
5. Not anymore...otherwise yes to all 3
6. Yes, hotels only
