Who's in? I am sick of having to force the company to pay me correctly for what I've worked.
There are a few things you don't mess with in a pilots life, seniority being the main one, followed closely by pay.
Why is it that a company of this size cannot get systems in place to correctly and accurately track pilot pay credits? Without fail they try and short you on pay, seemingly every month. If they overpay you by mistake, their auditors seem to find it in the blink of an eye; if they shorted you, it never gets brought to your attention and rectified. From this, I can only assume that they consciously overlook mistakes in your favor.
An easy way to check for a pattern of deception and theft would be to force the company to provide an account of how many paychecks have been audited and adjusted in their favor, versus how many have been adjusted in the pilot's favor (without the pilot submitting a pay query) From my experience the count would be overwhelmingly in the company's favor.
You short every pilot a couple of hundred dollars or more a year, and it adds nicely to the bottom line and management bonuses.
CHECK YOUR CREDITS EVERY MONTH IN THE MEANTIME!
Pay particular attention to deadheads and TDY assignments. They are neglecting to include duty time from an hour before your deadhead up until your first flight assignment, and the same at the end of the trip and your deadhead home.
