Was it changed for the worse due the BK contract?

You can also do the opposite with your bank...max negative prior to a displacement or down-bid, then pay it back at the lower pay rate.

The ability to bank 60 hours and save them for later has not changed at all. What changed is the way we bid, PBS, and the way we get paid for the month. With line of time bidding and the moveup process (known and blind) to both regular and reserve lines, you could easily get in the 85 to 95 hour credit range for a month. Then with a hard cap on hours you could get paid for the month, say 75, the only thing you could do was put these extra hours in the bank.

Had a DCI pilot on a positive space the other day on a oversold flight. Asked if he would give up his seat to help other non revs get on(no other jumpseaters). Once airborne we got to talking and he was going out to cover Ual express flying. Are they allowed to use pos. space, bump Dal revenue and non revs for another airlines flying? If not, who do I contact? If so, this is BS.

You need a day off. But that's not Whitlow.
What probably happened is the report time was in less than nine hours. When you are on long call you are not "resting" for Whitlow purposes. You have to be able to satisfy the look-back requirements even if you were not on short call. That's why we have the 12 hour report for long call guys. When they call you and give you a trip you have a 12 hour duty free period (no phone responsibility) prior to report. (or 10 hours prior to starting short call). That's Whitlow.
Seems odd they would call before they checked your legality. Normally the computer would instantly tell them you can't fly the trip and they would just skip you.
edit: We're talking domestic I assume. International is different.

Rough:
Do what you can to make the game. To say it's 'The Grand Daddy' is putting it mildly. Saw the ASU/OSU game in '96 with 'Jake the Snake' leading the Sun Devils, and we gave the game away. (Missed ASU's debut-victory against Mihigan while 'Defending Freedom" and flying for the Navy.)
Float building, New Year's Eve, parade, and FOOTBALL?
GO!
Good Luck and Enjoy.

I agree, go to a Rose Bowl! My friends that could and did loved it!
Refugee, when were you at ASU?
