On the Facebook pilot network group folks are asking if Amazon is hiring? How do we apply for Amazon? Ugh. Painful to read. Folks see a shiny new paint job and don't even bother reading the article associated with the picture. Those are the folks Atlas is targeting for their 4-500 number. Uninformed folks who don't put forth a little effort to find easily available information. If they can't bother to read the article then how would they ever really research a potential career at Atlas. I know that sounds harsh but if you think about it for a moment before whipping out your social media emotions you'll realise it's true. It would be a completely different story if there were a new contract or even if it were well underway, but currently that appears to be years away. Not to mention who else is currently raping Atlas of its crew force. At the present time they'll need about 4-500 pilots to be +100-150 pilots by Dec 17. I don't hate atlas or wish anyone any ill will, but the situation which has developed over the past 6 months is/will result in potential success being squandered away by the only group who will profit from our negotiations - lawyers.

BTW: when are the contract 2017 lanyards being mailed?
