covered by raisin above but sit pay is from *scheduled block in to block out.* A delayed segment does not increase sit pay.

This causes much confusion amongst the ranks. They oughta change the name to Scheduled Sit Pay just to avoid the false expectations I've had the misfortune of breaking the bad news to my crewmates.

Random RES PB Day question, can you drop a LC assigned trip via PB like a REG pilot, or only on-call days? i.e. - I'm on LC, trip gets assigned 18 hours out, I drop the trip with a banked PB, back on LC. I'm assuming they'd just reassign me the trip, but if it was a high credit first day it could pay more than just an on-call day.

You can not.

The PWA is pretty clear how pay works on an anniversary month for lineholders, but I am very unclear on how it works for reserve. My anniversary is very early in the month, and I only have x days before it. Is my reserve guarantee just pro-rated between the two rates depending on which day of the month my anniversary is? Any effect depending on when my x-days are? I have GS credit both before and after the anniversary, is before paid out straight at the lower rate, and after at the higher, or is that pro-rated between the two? Thanks!

I may be misreading this, but shouldn’t additional short call days show up on the time card as pay, no credit? I’ve had a few this month and all have populated as one extra hour of credit plus the extra hour of pay for the unused short call conversion (the correct number of additional SC days is populating in the additional short call column towards the bottom of the time card). The PWA, as I read it, is vague enough that I’m unsure if I’m wildly misinterpreting it.

The typical unused short call line is there, but aren’t there further incentives for additional short call periods beyond the max of 6? I’m up to 8 for the month (bid request). For each of the “additional” SC periods my credit has gone up by one hour. Once they’ve gone to SCC the typical 1:00 SCC line is showing up. Again, my apologies if I’ve misread the tiny section relating to additional short call periods, and thanks for the response.
