So I'm trying to use some PB days to get rid of a 4 day next month. I have 5 days to use, it processed today but says "1: NOT ALLOWED UNTIL NEXT MONTH'S SCHEDS".

The trip is a carry out pairing that we discussed a few pages ago. The last day goes into what'll be the September bid period. So what does the reason report mean? Will I be able to use PB days or am I hosed b/c of the carry out pairing?

Yep

Casey Cagle went after the State's largest industry, with about 100,000 total employees, at the behest of a special interest and went from front-runner to getting his ass absolutely handed to him, despite a much larger campaign budget.

Hope politicians take a lesson from this.

It probably touches one of the APD holidays and days before/after. Because of that, you have to wait for the schedules to be out since it only assumes reserved coverage is good when you dont have one of the APD holidays.

Nope....Surface DH only applies flying leg to flying leg. Sounds like you went to a layover so no joy. It is a classic company move in FLL/MIA, SFO/SJC/OAK and EWR/JFK/LGA.

So it's really not a "surface deadhead." It's more like "surface positive space." Deadhead would assume you got paid... Surprised Sailingfun didn't know the difference. Been doing this exact thing for years and never got paid a dime. It's great spending an hour in a van after your last block in just to get to your hotel, though.

Darn that Labor Day holiday!

Be a part of the team, bruh. I get that the SILs worked great for those guys who wanted to drop a month for half pay and get full-time orders in the guard or reserve. It probably sucks for all 150 of them. But there are 13850 +/- that the union has to look out for.

It's quite similar to the VB idea, is it not? 1000 might benefit, but 13000 +/- would pay for that in trip quality and other various QOL issues.

I could have benefited from VBs, but I get it. I am a commuter. "Commuting is a choice." I am not so self-aggrandizing to think that my needs are more important than this brother/sisterhood's.

P.S. Sorry you didn't get your SIL for Sept, Sailing. It sucks for you, I'm sure. It sucks for hundreds. But when the company willfully violates the PWC, and the union won't stand up, where do we go from there?

I voted against Cagle for this reason since there's no other way to really tell anything about the candidates. If there was a debate I missed it, and ads are a bunch of stuff. That said I thought I read somewhere that Kemp also wants to do away with the tax break and instead have a tax free day for guns'n'ammo. Don't know if I was trolled by some lib site or that's really his stance.

Ahh, I completely spaced Labor Day being that close. Thanks for the info!

Question. Was there or is there a way to request carry out pay be paid in current month. Someone asked me and hell if I know but I vaguely remember something like that but I could have just made that up.
