It will be a nasty summer. We are already asking for SRM and it' s only March. We need more than 500 this year and it will only get worse. Oh well.

 

[xjhawk]

srm? what does that stand for?

SRM = Senior Manning

Edit: Sorry, I didn't think about posting the definition. Short version: We're WAY SHORT on pilots and it isn't even summer yet. From the contract:

20-H-5 Senior Manning (SRM) Trips
20-H-5-a ​

[/FONT]An SRM Trip shall be processed in the following order:​

[FONT=Calibri,Bold]

20-H-5-b-(1) ​

[/FONT]The SRM Trip shall be made available to the trip-trading system. If an in-
Base Lineholder simultaneously drops a Trip that starts on the same day as the SRM Trip
that he picks up, the Add Pay shall be removed from the Trip. However, at its discretion
the Company may keep the Add Pay attached to the Trip.​

[FONT=Calibri,Bold]

20-H-5-b-(2) ​

[/FONT]The Company shall notify all Lineholders who could be assigned the SRM

in seniority order.​

[FONT=Calibri,Bold]

20-H-5-b-(3) ​

[/FONT]The SRM Trip shall be assigned to a Lineholder whose trip-trading bid
criteria matches the Trip and who requires a schedule repair the Company finds
acceptable. If two or more pilots have similarly-acceptable schedule repairs, the
Company shall assign the SRM Trip in seniority order.​

[FONT=Calibri,Bold]

20-H-5-b-(4) ​

[/FONT]The Company shall notify all Lineholders who could be assigned the SRM
Trip with a schedule repair and who have requested notification of SRM Trips. Such
Lineholders may contact the Company and, if the Company finds the schedule repair
acceptable, be offered the SRM assignment. Additionally, the Company may contact
and offer the SRM assignment to any such Pilot; if two or more Lineholders have
similarly-acceptable schedule repairs, the offer shall be made in seniority order.​

[FONT=Calibri,Bold]

20-H-5-b-(5) ​

[/FONT]The Company may move freely between Sections 20-H-5-b-(3) and 20-H-5-
b-(4) as it seeks a schedule repair it finds acceptable. The Company’s determination of​

“acceptability” may change.

SRM = Senior Manning

And that means?

 

[CAL EWR B737]

And that means?

We are really short. If you volunteer to pick up additional flying on a day you were not scheduled to work you get double pay (200%) for the entire trip.

So as an example an FO who makes $120 per hour picks up a five hour one day trip. Normally it would pay $600 ($120 times 5 hours) now it would pay $1200 ($240 times 5 hours or 120 times 10 hours).

Make sense?

So, double pay (200%) means that if you make $60/hour and fly 3 hours for $180, you'll now make $360? WOW. Had no idea what 200% really meant.

What happens if he folds all of the bills in half?

Just kidding. It's United. What happens if she folds all of the bills on half?

Friend of mine interviews next week. He was a former intern back in early 2000's.

No, he would get $600, because of the 5 hour min pay rig per day.

No...I'm still a little fuzzy on the math. It is a very complex topic. Could slow it down and make it a little more pedantic?

 

[GuinessGuy]

Jonjuan.....thanks for the laugh......
I also had no idea what 200% meant too......

 

[acbarney]

At the Denver training center now. Off the street interviews started Monday. Met one waiting for the bus to the hotel yesterday.

Good luck!

 

[Phrogs4ever]

SRM pays a minimum of 10 hours pay per day. There is a lot of "opportunity" on the 756 since manpower isn't letting any of the FOs leave to their awarded seats...yet. I guess that's one way to make up for lost Captain pay.

Nice 1

I wasnt sure if it was possible to laugh anymore from posts on FI......

Made me want to drink some milk just for the chance of it coming out of my nose while reading that......

Well done sir....
