No worries. I would have definitely been one of the people who called had they not explained it to us proactively. Seems like they forgot to tell a couple of new hire classes. Also, your March per diem and over guarantee will all be on the last check in April, so expect your next check (Apr 15) to be another small one.

Did you just finish training? HR told our class that a lot of people were calling them because they didn't understand how it was set up when you leave training. They explained it to us so they could avoid tons of calls. Let's say you finished training in February:
November: You get paid training + training per diem
December: You get paid training + training per diem
January: You get paid training + training per diem
February: You get paid training + training per diem
March: You get paid guarantee (NO per diem)
April: You get paid guarantee + March's per diem + March's overtime
May: You get paid guarantee + April's per diem + April's overtime
There is a month lag for per diem and above guarantee once you actually start flying.
If you aren't just finishing training, then this doesn't apply, obviously.
Good luck!

New Hire Classes
Hello all! I am going to be in the first May class and I was curious if anyone is possibly knowledgeable on where new hires have been assigned recently and flying what airplane? And is it still birth date for seniority?

We're all screwed up, it's just a sliding scale.

That is true, it could be worse. I'm not miserable about it, frankly if it only affected me I wouldn't really care, but many of us have a wife and kids that could use us around a little more, especially after putting up with 3+ years of reserve abuse. After the junior-manning spree of last summer/fall/December it seemed that maybe staffing was going to be at least a little better, and then they dropped the ORD contraction on us with no warning and we are all involuntary TDY and reserve forever. Of course I realize things could be worse, but it is frustrating to see your wife and kids frustrated with your job, no matter how rosy your outlook.
