nope, salary with hourly over time. It was straight time not time and half, but still. I had 320 hours in that month. I got 2 months pay in 1 months time.

 

I hope Management made it worth your while. If you worked for me a day off with pay and a few leaving early days would be in order.

I see your incentive above.

 

on top of getting paid for all the hours i worked, i got a $1k visa gift card from my boss.

 

Least they made it worth your while.

Still though, thats kinda nuts

 

I am salary only... they can keep me as long as they need me. Some weeks are really bad. 14-16 hr days all week when things are really broken. 10 more years and I can go to an hourly job...

 

I was living on Monster and 5 hour energy. 13+ hour days for 14 days straight. It was HELL!, but it was worth it in the end. We got the system rolled out into production on time. If we didn't get it done on time, it would have been pushed back almost a year because they were moving to a new building and there was a hold on any changes during the move.

 

Bet the wife liked that.

 

the wife didn't get to touch it. I got some new custom fit golf clubs

 

getting fitted for clubs is an absolute must for the freakishly tall, would have liked to get fitted for clubs but I got a smokin deal on my clubs.

 

Now that is not nice. Think of all the extra work that fell on her sholders during that time frame.

Custom fit golf clubs FTW!

 

the pay check took care of her.

 

yes it is. I am much happier with my new clubs. I just need to play more so i'm not so damn inconsistent.

 

LOL

Good man, took care of the wife.

 

Im just sitting here watching my airmen work. I feel like a union supervisor right now. Oh, got out of the pt test until I get back from phoenix the end of the month!

 

Sup Lisa?

 

Probably the best laugh I've had this week!

that's what I was thinking...

BTW Lisa, my Lynden friend said your shipments haven't come thru yet. I guess the barges come into Whittier and stuff is brought from there on trains. So the flight ops guys are watching for it to show up on their cargo/flight schedule.

Seems like they're relaxing the "oversight" of the PT program a little...making it more self accountable program...least that's the impression I'm getting from the AD guys at work...glad I'm outta that game.

Chris (16).. Is Julie happy with her new machine? The rest of that e-mail from Best Buy is just "computer crap". I no longer try to understand or worry about it...obviously a computer somewhere in their system was autogenerating BS

 

Yeah, it is a more self-paced thing. Which is really nice if you work odd hours like we do on the flight line. You know, we can work 8 hrs one day then turn around and be stuck for 15 the next. Plus, we don't get to go on our duty time like the nonners.
