The 18-24 month upgrade is never going to happen.
That advertisement first came out about 6 months ago. So anyone hired under that assumption will obviously be behind everyone on property 6 months ago. So that means they have 12 months to upgrade 250+ FO's that were already on property to hit the 18 month number before the first guy hired being told that, sees an upgrade. They would need to start upgrading 20 a month now for that to happen, and guess what, not happening.
Everyone keeps saying there's 20+ per month in new hire classes yet the pay day hotline from ALPO clearly shows that half of them are forced to resign.
Junior mans everyday. For everyone. Help out or get an unavailable. "If you don't do this the flight will cancel, blah blah"
