Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
I was a 75/76 FO during the PanAm ingestion. Going through recurrent right after it was announced, some mgt type came down to blow some sunshine up our skirts. Told me I wasn't gonna be a copilot much longer! He was right. Went from middle 76 FO to the panel. I guess I should've asked him to be more specific!
I log on today and you guys are all talking pregnancy and having babies.
Latest and Greatest cheerleader?

Somebody was asking about the DAL-N paychecks, here is an excerpt from the company:
How will this transition impact me?
For the month of January 2010, instead of receiving a paycheck on January 13th, you will receive your check on January 15th for your December settlement. The check you receive on January 31st will be your advance payment for January.
Now, my question is how can you call a paycheck on the 31st, for work already done, an "advance"???

The 15th check is you total settlement for your work performed minus the set dollar amount they advance you on the 30/31st.
The dollar amount they advance you is base upon years of service. This number (dollar amount) is subtracted from your 15th paycheck.
I know it is crazy

Yeah, my buddy found that floating around in our ATLAS email(which I had been ignoring because I thought everything important would be elsewhere). What's going to stink is that tiny check coming on the 31st. It's really jacking with my budget, & it's something that needs to be fixed in our next contract IMO.

Simple. The way DAL does it is:
The 15th check is you total settlement for your work performed minus the set dollar amount they advance you on the 30/31st.
The dollar amount they advance you is base upon years of service. This number (dollar amount) is subtracted from your 15th paycheck.

Yes, but it is not an advance. The paycheck you get on the 31st is the "advance" for the month that is just ending (i.e. the Jan 31 paycheck is the advance for the month of Jan). I could understand it being called an advance if the paycheck on Jan 31 was for the advance in the month of Feb (i.e. you are going to work in Feb so we will advance you some money). It is just terminology, but don't try and trick me into the idea that it is something that is being given out of the goodness of the heart (it should be termed the "holdback" check).
I really don't care about it as it doesn't impact me that much in terms of takehome pay (now, we can talk about the 401k contribution and how it affects that for all of us but on an individual basis, it is peanuts, but as a combined group, it is a good thing for mother DAL as she accrues interest a little bit longer.
Just my thoughts, which don't mean much
Hey. Do we have layovers in Haiti or the DR?
