It's a judgement call. Hes in a position he wouldnt get an early call. The people in the feb or March class who will get pushed back and accept will get a call early because everyone in front of them is gainfully employed and won't leave their line holding job at skywest for a turn on reserve in nyc. Thats assuming history repeats itself.

Maybe it doesn't fit the black and white definition for you, but when the consumer decides your product is valueless it doesnt matter that it "technically" has some value to someone. As EDV HR has learned many times now, filling classes is an art, not science.
Did you actually read his posts? He is already at another regional and just put his application out there thinking of going somewhere else. All I said was that deciding with the delay to preemptively refuse the class is not "keeping options open."
