Hourly Pay at USAir

[Trogdor]

Quick question: Does USAir have time and a half pay for hours flown above say 80 hours?

 

[TWA Dude]

No. See

I had seen that page, but it didn't say either way. Just curious from someone on the inside, and I see that is you, so Thanks.

you got it backwards... once uCRAPa is the bargining agent it will 1/2 time (not time and a half) past 80 hours

USAPA can't give away any more work rules because there are none left. ALPA took care of that.

Yeah ALPA took care of it all right...

And when they had given it all away the only thing stopping them from giving more where the FARs.

But then they weren't satisfied that the FARs were holding them back from giving away more so they went and changed the FARs too (age 65).

The ALPOphiles have a serious case of Stockholm.uke:

Um, the two bankruptcies are to blame for your loss of workrules, pay, and pension. Today, you scapegoat your union for that. Tomorrow, you'll still scapegoat your union -- whichever union that may be.

I'm sorry, was ALPA National your bargaining agent during the BK's?...

Nope, it was your own guys, from your own pilot ranks who gave it all away. Some are the same guys who told you date of hire. You guys crack me up. ALPA National ain't your problem, your following a bunch of arrogant sob's and blaming everyone but yourself is the problem.

ALPA ain't nearly as bad as your own MEC.

ALPA ain't nearly as bad as your own MEC.

I'ld almost agree with you except that our MEC wasn't directly accountable to the pilots. ALPA national has much more influence on them.

ALPA "experts" schooled the MEC about how their knees would be broken if they bucked against ALPA and rewarded pilots for obedience--like Beebe who rolled over on the pilots he represented.

But hey, after the vote we will all have a harmonious opinion about how great things are, or if we don't then we can all blame ourselves for voting in the misery that we all foisted on ourselves.

Well Turtle, for once I agree.
