AE
I haven’t been into work for quite some time now, so please forgive me. This message is in regards to the latest AE. I was an affected pilot, until recently converting from the last AE and after accepting proffer to NYC220. If I ONLY (only is stressed) bid WB B positions on the latest AE and I am NOT awarded any of those WB B positions, will I still retain my NYC220 position?

My understanding is that you also have “super seniority,” coming before those affected pilots who were not awarded anything on the AE you got your current award, even if you are numerically junior. Could be a good time to use that leverage if it’s a significant number of pilots. However, I think the bulk of the WB awards will happen on the NEXT AE, at which point it’ll be straight seniority for all.

Correct. And you’ll have no seat lock.

Yep - I have been burned by this numerous ways over the years. The one time I took GS-1 and it paid a whopping 1+35 over guarantee causing me to miss out on 3 & 4 day GSs later in the month. I thought it would be 5+15 over.
Then this one time in band camp, wait wrong story, I mean this other time when the credit flowed into the next bid period and totally screwed up my Machiavellian WS plans for the next month.
This probably ended up in my favor here or there, but those times just don't seem as memorable. Something about touching that hot stove that "burns" lessons into your memory. Must be some kind of genetic/hereditary survival adaptation.

Here is a different question.......not related to aviation.
My W-2 from Delta says I over contributed to my HSA by $75 and yet Optum says my contributions are exactly correct. (I called them to confirm)
Do I need to do anything? Not really concerned about such a small amount but, again, I was wondering if I need to do anything.

If you use the Delta number, what’s your additional taxes, $20?
If you use Optum’s number and the IRS wants more info later, is it worth the $20 hassle?
