TO those OH'ers who were pending class at XJ, Did you already have to give up your seniority at OH?

Weird thing is that Mesaba called me for a phone interview 1 hour before this news broke out. When I asked what aircraft they were hiring for she said the CR9 cause they were getting 15 of them, I guess she wont be calling back to set up that interview. Gotta love Delta Airlines....

They were conducting phone interviews? That makes me think they were hiring into a pool or something; back when I got called in early November, it was an in-person personal interview or bust. This is incredible; I knew something like this could happen...but jeez. When I woke up this morning, I was wondering how long it would take to get off reserve after training. Fast forward half a day and I'm wondering where in the world a 1,300 hr pilot with less than 100 multi can actually fly anything.

In the phone interview she mentioned that classes were all booked up through March I believe, and that they were hiring into a pool. I doubt there will be a need to hire into a pool now. Yea jobs are hard to come by now 1300 hours used to allow you to pick where you wanted to go.

Ask the Sep/Oct 05 hires about that.... the 2 that still work here.....
It's not the first time this kind of BS has happened and won't be the last....

I believe you. I haven't been around long, but I've been around long enough to learn that you can't do this stuff if layoffs and cancellations hurts your feelings.

No... thank God. I still have recall rights at OH and I guess I will just be thrown in a pool at XJ. Anybody have an extra life jacket?
