When does your paytime start?

[Erlanger]

Curious for all to chime in, as to when you're on the clock. Is it when the cabin door is closed or does it start with the pushback or taxi?

Cabin door closed and parking brake dropped.

It starts at whatever time we make up and give to operations.

Two days before my start date of ground school, full captain salary from there on.

Main cabin door and bag door closed, and parking brake released (ACARS).

 

[Alltheway]

however now we are being told not to drop the brake even if the door is closed until we are about to physically push, something about ramp audits or something wTF

 

[McNugent]

Got yelled at yesterday by the outstation because we dropped the brake too early. They wanted the door closed 10 minutes early but the brake dropped only 5 minutes early. OOPS. Evidently they don't know how we get paid.
