What stopped you from asking these questions at the interview? Remember you are also supposed to interview them to make a sound decision on taking the job. I guess you can still call them and ask these questions before you show up for class. You better hear it from them directly then on this forum.

My initial reaction:



My secondary reaction, "Is your name Tyrell?"



And finally, for serious:

Yes, those pay scales are correct. Yes, you only receive per diem after 9 hours of duty. A lot of people eat into their savings to survive the first few years. It's atrocious and a MAJOR reason why people are leaving in droves.

Please, for the love of Frank (whom was right), do some damn research before going to an interview.

I hope you didn't choose Silver because you live near one of the out stations and are hoping to be home based

I forgot to say it yesterday, so I'll say it now:

Happy Per Diem Bump Day! Per diem is now calculated at $1.75/hour for all duty over 9 hours.
