New-hires passing on AA, DAL, and FedEx?
A good buddy of mine just returned to the property after 2nd furlough/COLA. He finished New-Hire Orientation on Apr 14th. He said there were several new-hires that passed on AA, DAL, and FedEx. Now I can understand AA and possibly DAL, but FedEx? My best friend was hired by both DAL and us about a year ago, and he chose Delta. His dad is a retired UAL mechanic and grew up wanting to fly for UAL, but he lives near Detroit so that explained it. When I came back on property back Oct 2014, I bumped into one guy who turned down an offer from Fedex in favor of United, but he also had a mil retirement.
For you future UAL guys with class dates, did you pass on offers from others?
Just curious if the tides are changing.😎
