It's a mix online. I think the hotels out west are better than the ones out east.

Except I went from Silver Horizon then SkyWest pretty sure my humbleness and ability to take ownership of my failures is what got me hired at 2 reputable carriers, unlike this jamoke who blames everyone but himself.

When you've made it through a training program then you can talk not a forgiving one like Mesa either.

Slow your horses, you're just as bad. Nice little blowup you had in the TOTD thread a couple of weeks ago. Neither one of you has the right to throw stones at the other.

To answer this question, yes you are considered "hired" the day you walk into training and are eligible for the benefits as soon as you fill out the paperwork for the health, dental, flight benefits etc. We had some people use the flight benefits during their training to travel home during weekends. Probably not the best idea but they're available to you if you unwisely decide to use them.

New hires - don't bring your family to your initial training. I realize you might be away from them for a while, but they are a major distraction. It may be the difference of making it through or not.

But healthcare benefits start after 90 days correct? You are not eligible on day 1, correct?

So, do you get a break in the 3 month long training to go see family at least once or twice or is it see you in. 3 months?
