Is there a payscale that already includes locality pay for the different areas?

A: Yes, https://employees.faa.gov/employee_s...ality08Rev.xls

At the bottom of the spreadshee you can select different "sheets" that are labeled for their region. This will show you the payscale chart with the locality included.

Q: Where can I find more detailed information on how my pay will be determined.

A: This link will give you the different formulas used to determine pay. https://employees.faa.gov/employee_s...PRev032508.pdf

Do these words mean anything to anybody else? I can't make anything from them.

how do you know what you will be making in 12 years? Is there a future pay scale memo out I haven't seen. If so could you send me the link? Ok, Thanks.

I still don't understand how some people on here received "well qualified" scores yet they are inable to write a grammatically correct/complete/coherent sentence, that freaking test was rigged...

Well, as they told me at the ATSAT, the test is not a measure of intelligence or how smart you are. It should only test your aptitude for the skills required to be a successful controller.

My comment was more broad than singling out a particular person. There have been plenty of times I have seen people use "your" instead of "you're" or "there" for "their" or "they're" and various other errors. Then I look down in their sig's and see 90+ scores posted and think, "Really? How is that possible because this guy is an idiot." But really, I just got back from working 56 hours in 4 days and I'm just stressed and worn out so once again I've been the victim of blasted ironing...

You need to keep in mind that generally in cyber space people don't really pay attention to their spelling (unfortunately). At least everyone isn't using internet short hand or a crap load of acronyms like "FTW"... lol, I am playing Honu!

In other words, chill out, have a Mojito, grab a bottle of lotion and some kleenex and relax.
