Less than 24 hours after I crapped on the OE planner guy he calls me up to give me two sweet TOE trips. I officially apologize.
Still, it is amazing to me that he had no idea yesterday that he was going to assign OE to me today. Where/when are ya goin'? |

Typically half guarantee (32-35 hours pay) on first check, second mid month check is remainder of guarantee plus overs or whatever you're owed if less than guarantee for line holders on min schedule + per diem. Works well for every other airline in the country ;) The current method only lets the company hold on to OUR money longer while they reap the benefits and we lose. The current pay system is a concession. I agree there are other things to fix also but why sell ourselves short? For the first month yes, but what you state would only be true if you were paid once a month. The money is going out on a uniform cycle so they are not holding money any longer one way or another. You would divide your money up under the system you talk about differently but after a month the cash flow out the door is the same. I know what you are stating, and I see the merit in a divided guarantee, but since it has been done this way for 20+ years, there is no savings to the company. They pay out more in the mid month check and therefore you could argue that their cash reserves are depleted more. It is six of one half dozen of another. Not picking side of this argument, but a have good knowledge in cash flow on payment systems and the ones I have seen gain no significant money by doing our way. Most of the time that money is not in the account until shortly before payroll is made. |

CDG on the 4th and MXP on the 12th. Probably the last time I'll see either one of them for a long time.
Ciao! |

Nu- so the white nights of justice and freedom would come to the rescue and tell the company how it's gonna be? :rolleyes: You're like the antithesis of Pinapple... equally out there.
But I NEVER heard a single person complain how ALPA was handling greivances or other contract related issues in all the years I was at NWA. NOT ONE. Can't say that now. Nu |

I enjoy these boards, probably a little too much...... It is fun to connect dots together and it has grown to something a lot larger than anyone ever imagined. |

Pilot Paychecks: Not usually a union or mgmt cheerleader, but I have to give credit where credit is due. NWALPA, DALPA and the flight ops integration guys all deserve a lot of praise. If we're spending all this time on extensive discussion of Delta's flawed payroll system -- The pilot group merger has been a complete success. |

When I think of the horrific bloody battles we could be having right now, its pretty encouraging that this paycheck issue has generated so many posts over so many days.
