I never said that we would never hire again. We are talking about hiring due to the passing of this TA (but I think you knew that, spin spin spin). I'm not so sure that we will hire due to this TA.
Run for the hills!!! More people are flying every year though. The Recession may not have helped, but yoy the numbers keep growing.
So which is it?? You started an entire thread with doom and gloom economic predictions some time ago. So, are things ok on that front? Or are they going to fall apart? Because your two postings/positions are contradictory.
Maybe you could have done research first? I knew about it, just by taxiing behind the multitude of Piedmont Dash 8s and Colgan Saabs at LGA in USair colors. Looks like you weren't paying attention.....
I think you are the one not paying attention. What people are talking about is management's pleading with us to help them get the slot swap passed (write your reps in dc), then stabbing us in the back by making it 90% rj flying. Also, if I am not mistaken, even dalpa had predicted the need for around 300 pilots to accomodate the swap. Look how that worked out for us. Already forgotten dalpa's messages of "suprise" and "dismay" at management's decision have you?
I don't remember that.
That is apparent.
From Bacon:
Yes, I should have done more research. But not to fear, I won't make the mistake of trusting the company and my "union" again.
There it is.
