Perdiem is NOT PAY! If you want to eat PBandJ three times a day while at work, well, good for you. Just think how much you would make if you didn't eat while on a trip.
I prefer to eat real meals, and perdiem offsets the added cost of eating on the road. Period. Counting it as pay only plays into management's hand.

If what you say is true, we should be negotiating $1.70 an hour flight pay and $30 per hour perdiem.

You have been at Colgan sine before the contract right? Wasn't your first year pay somewhere in the 19 dollar range? Say you made 22/hr....that's 1,450 hours. I know you didn't have soft pay like that.
You said high 80 hour lines......
90 hour lines = 1,080hrs/year
32,000/1,080= 29.62
You made 29.62 first year at Colgan? Your numbers don't add up.

I don't know what to tell you except if I was going to lie about how much I made, I wouldn't come up with $30,000 to impress anonymous internet posters. First year pay was $25.92 and there was lots of inefficient scheduling and mistakes made that caused monthly credit to go way up. I live in base so I could easily pick up open time and I held a line from day one.

If you include the perdium I made 34K on 2011 my first year at Eagle, without perdium I made 26K! What is hard for people to believe about the 30K?

I'd say if you started more than 6-7 years ago....you were **** poor 1st year. I stand corrected. Didn't know you made that amount year 1.
