I left Colgan a three weeks ago. Because of all the payroll screwups, last week I checked with my bank on direct deposits because I wanted to yank their access to my account. The bank manager told me the company can pull a deposit back or make adjustments while it is pending on your account. But they cannot pull anything out of your account once it has posted to the account without your authorization.

They can't. That would be illegal.

15-16 years ago an acquaintence left Mesa. He got paid for many months. The tried to give him crap about getting the money back. But he never heard from them after the first phone call. He had heard that they just brushed it under because no one in accounting wanted to get blamed for the over sight.

Plus, turning the lights off in a quiet room to sleep is another pont of interest. I dont like going into our quiet room to get away from transient noise, only to open the door to a dark room to pilots and flight attendants using the room as a crash pad. Not saying this is you, but I am always amazed at the confusion between "quiet room" and "turn the lights off to sleep like it is your bedroom" room

Slippery slope..
I personally enjoy a truly dark and quiet room. I may have a long sit, have to pull ready reserve time, get in super late from my commute....for all these reasons I have enjoyed the prospect of more fitfull rest. ( Also, I do have a crashpad. )

Default You can't make this stuff up

So, yet another email to payroll. A few minutes later, I get a reply:

"Translated......"

I write the sender and ask what "Translated..." means. She responds:

"Your email came over to us in German and I translated it for the group so we can begin working on it. See below."

Amazing, I haven't written a word auf deutsch in 25 years, yet somehow I managed to draft a note, send it, AND (most amazing of all) a payroller figured out what happened and translated.

And my keyboard doesn't even have an umlaut.

I was shorted over $1000 of per diem on my 4/16 check from being in long term training for the entire month of March... haven't heard anything about it yet.

Well I hate to reopen this but I was just shorted $1001 of my min guarantee on this paycheck. Does anyone have a number for me? I already sent a form in but I'm looking to follow up.
