Then FO’s with 950hrs & DECs can have at the spoils / crumbs. That is basically how it works, until the following vacancy bid/announcement.
Nutshell is, DEC’s choices are in the Standing Vacancy offerings.
Ok. I'm probably missing something here, but being in the new hire class that started on 9/24...I've already been able to put in my Standing Bid Preference.
Its my understanding that the current bid is open now and closes sometime in the first week of October.
Because I have my bid pref. in already prior to it closing sometime Oct.,, wouldn't I be eligible to be awarded what I bid....provided I'm lucky obviously, or am I totally lost?
