Default PSA Furloughing

Since the other thread got deleted, I'll start a new one... We got an email yesterday, PSA will be furloughing 27 first officers. Haven't gotten the certified letter yet, but they didn't say thrity-ish or something so the writing is on the wall for me and others. Guess it's time to update my resume. In case I go absolutely crazy and decided to apply to another airline so I can get furloughed twice in one year...who's still hiring?

Default Who's still hiring

Skywest, Comair, and Colgan are the only ones I know that are still hiring.

sorry to hear blue, had a feeling it was coming over there as well. How long have you been online now? Hopefully, long enough to get some experience to make yourself marketable again in this crapola of an industry.

Darn sorry to hear it. Just a few classes separating me from that fate... Are you sure you are "affected" -did you get the call from CP?

What i'd like to know is why was the seniority list showing 580 some pilots but now only shows 554 pilots? Did they already drop the 27 from the list or ???

Yeah so now you can be at the very bottom of Comair's seniority list. Not sure if that's a good move or not...
