FRA is where they make adjustments to your pay. I had it on mine when they over paid me and then used FRA to take it back out of my next checks. It took me about 5-10 calls to payroll to get an answer and the person who did mine was never there and nobody else really wanted to talk to me about it.

I fu**ing hate dealing with Payroll. They are the most unfriendly SOB's over at the GO.

We really need a better way to get information on our paycheck stubs. There are so many little abbreviations to know. And then looking at the paycheck sheet it is tough to see if you got payed correctly.

Anyone know how long you have to withdraw from a Vacancy Award? I've been trying to find the MOU "Withdrawal from Vacancy Award", but can't find it.

:confused:

I see that JFK is offering another COLA for April. I smell another reduction in hours for JFK...

It all depends on when you were supposed to transfer or begin training. Call Ryan Piper and he can explain it.

7 days to withdrawl. (Just did the same thing last week.) After that, I think it has to be petitioned in writing.

Brian O'Keefe x1309 is the one to call.

hey RJ Driver, I see that you're still on the latest Transfer list. Are you really thinking about dropping off of it?

I don't know what to do. I was one away from holding a line on the 50, so there would be a good chance I would get a line in April. However, I have a feeling that after March those people who got a line next month will go back on reserve in April. I think we only got those extra 1,500 hrs. of flying due to Spring Break and that will go away again after March, but I could be wrong though. Then again, I hear reserve on the 70/90 is not very long. I talked to someone who went to the 70/90 in December and his holding a line in March.

Decisions, decisions...:p

So you have 7 days to withdraw every time a new Award comes out or is it 7 days after the original award?

Reserve is shorter for Capts in the 70 than it is for the 50. But not for F/Os. For March I am quite a bit away from holding a line, while my initial classmates have lines in JFK and CVG. But the spring break inflation may have something to do with it.

Reserve is easier in the 70 for the most part. It's a little more stable. And if you've seen my line this month in SBS, I am going to blow min guarantee out of the water. I think I'm up to about 85 credit hours
