NetJets extended day

[BOOYA]

On the reserve schedule.

Called in and they said they were going to use me 2 days from now.

DNIF for day 1, 2, and 3.

Called in well for day 4.

Sent out to meet up with a captain on day 4 and he was on day 3.

If I was to volunteer to work on his last day that would be day 8 for me, would I get an extended day pay?

If I was on the 7and7 I think this would be an easy yes, but what about on the reserve schedule? The FM said which day i was on the schedule and I called DNIF the day prior. Then I called in well late in the evening on day 3. Day 4 I airlined to where the airplane was and the other guy was on day 3. If I was to volunteer would I get the extended day pay for working his last day?

Yes because even though you DNIF'd the first three days it would still be day 8 for you and thus they would have to pay you for the extended day. They cannot retroactively go back and call your sick days days off. You were scheduled to work those days so they count towards your 7.

 

[Ultra Grump]

Well, you either get the extended day or keep your sick days in the bank, a win-win for you!

That may answer my other question I had. If I had a 6 day tour I would have 3 off. Assume that sched said I had 7 days off till the begenning of my next tour. But of course that could change, but I'm actually sick, so I start callin in sick when I've been home 4 days after my previous tour. DNIF on my days off #4,5,6,and 7. Now tomorrow is the begenning of my 7 day tour and I call in well. I would not be charged for my 4 sick days? And I could be on for my 7 day tour?

You should only DNIF on those "off" days if you called in the night before the 4th day off (non-required) and they told you the next day was a work day. Otherwise you're shooting yourself in the foot.

What I was saying was if the company wants to jerk you around on the extended day by calling the other days "days off," you should then get those sick days back. You would also have to decide if you want to file a grievance over the company retroactively calling those days "off" days. What's more important to you - sick days in the bank or extended day cash in the bank?

 

[notaNJApilot]

how many sick days are you allowed per year?

 

[Majik]

12 (earn 1 per month)

 

[You're right]

This is the most pathetically sad discussion I've seen in a long time......

"but I was actually sick"......explains a whole lot fellas

 

[notaNJApilot]

imagine what goes on at the union message board!

 

[FLYLOW22]

There is no need to explain the definition of DNIF to non NJA pilots guys. Thake the discussion to the 1108 message board. You will get straight answers with non of the excess chatter.

Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Hey bud, just because your boyfriend wouldn't play with your tootsie roll last night doesn't give you any right for those comments

..... aka....cheat the company as much as possible, but don't do it in public view.

You know, my Grandpappy Lieber always used to say "Stealing, you'll go far in life. Actually, there is something funny about getting away with it." (he was a bad guy--long story) Ever feel that way "Flylow"?

The Reserve pilot is sick but guaranteed 3 days off. He is still sick after the 3 days but he has no idea if tomorrow is a work day. He calls in during the day and DNIFs to give scheduling the heads up in case they were planning on using him. After 4 days he is no longer sick.

So his question is... can scheduling keep him out 7 days after he already was charged 4 sick days?

And if they do keep him out does he get back his sick days or does he get charged the sick days and get awarded extended days?


You owe this pilot an apology.

Who are you? Yoda?

You owe this pilot an apology.

I don't think so. You're Right's observations are appropriate.

Discussing ways to work less than you committed to when hired and still try to get overtime is inappropriate. The fact they they do it on a public forum is even more reprehensible.

 

[gunfyter]

You do not seem to understand the post either.

This is not about working less.

Its about understanding how many days he is committed to.

What he should do is NOT call in sick for a day he does not know whether its a work day or a day off.

Then this won't be an issue. If you are not scheduled. Don't waste a sick day on your day off..

LOL....okay Captain Pulitzer....

 

[gunfyter]

LOL....okay Captain Pulitzer....

What? I didn't put BOOYA's words in quotes?

You still owe him an apology.

All he wanted to know was what to do if he is sick and doesn't know whether he will be scheduled to work the next day.

And...

If he did call in and get charged 4 sick days... how many days may the company keep him out ... 3 or 7? And if he did stay out beyond 3 days does he get extended days pay for it?

Reasonable question and not at all what you accuse him of.

 

[notaNJApilot]

he must feel a bit sly about asking the question since he didn't call the CRC.

 

[gunfyter]

I've never called CRC... but

I don't know why he would ask here when he could just ask on the pilots website.
