Got the e-mail this morning that all classes are cancelled until further notice, and that we're all put in the pool.

No bueno!

Should I be as nervous as I am right now? If history is any clue, canceled classes today mean furloughs tomorrow... so to speak. I'm kinda junior.

You should be VERY nervous. Especially when Delta transfers those 17 200's to Pinnacle and gives you 10 nines.

XJkid... really, you should change the NINE to 900. The "Nine" is commonly referring to DC-9, which you're neither flying, nor paid like you are flying.

Just a friendly remark...

It ain't flame, it's a serious question... see it's that kind of stuff that gets threads off track.

So to the original question, is this another instance of furlough 'til you hire, hire 'til you furlough? I'm updating my resume in any case... (9/22/08 DOH)

If you mean the "DC-9," then never. XJkid is an idiot. If you mean the "CR9," the first was delivered on May 24, 2007.

Stop flamebaiting. This forum despises you, please go away.
