I can understand to an extent why, especially when we had CJOs waiting 200+ days to get on property and our competitors have better pay and work rules. And apparently Delta is trying to get them as quickly as possible because they've drained the pool and want CJOs to get in class around two weeks after the interview. Which makes me wonder if AirlineApps needs to tweak their software, cuz the fact that FedEx, SWA, and United are getting an invite out to these guys within two weeks of their app being submitted while Delta dithers doesn't add up. To each their own I guess. For one of these guys Delta is an afterthought so it's not a big deal to him, and in fact he's not even concerned about it. I'm just wondering why D hasn't shown interest while these other competitors are chomping at the bit to get him on board. No big deal.
