What does this mean on a bid sheet ?

I have no idea what the 3 year job means, never heard of anything like that. If it were a bit longer, I'd figure that they were thinking they'd be able to eliminate those particular jobs in the next contract, but 3 years falls short of the next contract. So, who knows...
The no back pay would lead me to believe that this particular job was supposed to have been bid and filled a while back and they're just getting around to posting it because someone probably finally caught on. Now they're trying to avoid having to pay the back pay that whoever should've had that job would have made. If the BA has no idea what the wording in that bid means, perhaps he/she should be investigating!?! Sounds fishy to me.

Most of the people that would want this job are top rate drivers that want to come off the road
In that case they will get top rate 22.3 driving rate which is a lot less than what they are making now
Sounds like a good job for older guys on the way out.
If I'm going to work I want top rate
You should take tomorrow off. Get some rest and enjoy a long weekend.
And miss all the fun?
Yeah it’s a blast. Countdown is on
Excellent

No back pay refers to the first part timers who became 22.3.
It is included on all newer bid sheets as a precaution.
I was one lucky ones { all 5 of us had 20+ years seniority } to become 22.3 in 1999 with retro pay going back to when the contract was signed
I got the less amount since I was already doing AM airwork & an inside Twilight job.
The other new 22.3s ( 4 part timers ) received more back pay since they only worked the Twilight shift.
{ to put it plainly , those who worked the least, got the most back pay }

Sign the bid list.
Then you find out all details and can decline if it does not sound like anything you would be interested in.
