Hey all,

How senior is ORD looking to be for new hires or is it going to be staffed fully by the DTW guys?

Thanks!

Hard to say, while DTW is open, it going to be mixed, Just saw the latest, and all NH are getting ACY, FLL, DFW. ORD looks like 5-6 month sen for the bottom. That will change as the company adds crews.

NKS, disclaimer: "all subject to change"

Thumbs down FO Rat

on a different topic:

I am hearing we have a LAS FO with the initials of R B who does not understand the concept of pro standards, and why we have such a system in place especially at airlines like Spirit.

We all know our FAs have their supervisors on speed dial, but I did not realize some pilots run to the CP with their problems as well. Except of course one of our beloved FLL female CA who we all know who she is.

Very sad.

That's relative. Almost all of our FO's are FNG's (current junior CA is Jan 2008 DOH), but this guy was hired in late 2011, so he's over 1/2 way up the FO list. Not sure what he stands accused of though.

No offense, VX guys, but why would we continue to hire guys who've shown they can't manage a profitable operation? DO certainly has some influence on that number. That said, maybe they know something about customer service, one of our potential 'areas of improvement'. I'd much rather see VX influence at the station operations level than at the corporate level.

Because we are the require "profitable airline mgmt qualification academy", I guess, who knows?
