Concur. It was nice to get some info, but it was more of an expectation management email than anything else. Basically reinforcing they haven't been approved for more than 300 but are hoping for it (nothing new there) and that based on current numbers their forecast is that they "think" but will not guarantee that all current CJO's will be in by the end of 14.

I'm still happy to be in the pool and I've got the flexibility to hang on waiting for Delta for a while. But as other airlines start hiring it'll be interesting to see how many jump to other opportunities. I'd imagine there are quite a few people who have families, commitments, timelines, and other factors that won't allow them to just hang on for anywhere from 7-11 months (or more?). Definitely not Delta's problem since none of us are "hired" and they'll easily fill the spots if someone bails. But tough for somebody to be in the "hang in there" spot for that long.

As somebody alluded to earlier....Don't worry, it'll all change a million more times before it's all settled and there isn't much we can do about it. Ups and downs, just try to enjoy the ride.
