Now with the amount of new hires coming in I’m being pushed down in seniority because they get a hard line their first month, I’m back to reserve/ bottom blank holder.
Perhaps the times will change but I wouldn’t count on holding a line in your first year in Orlando.
That being said I just moved to LAS base and I have a Tues Wed Thurs line with 18 days off. 1 year anniversary in a few days…
Hey im talking about the CURRENT new hires. They've been shoving 30-40 new hires in each month to MCO. So at the current trend yes.
Also yeah consolidation month(s) are hardlines, so you'll get at least 1 full month of hard lines until youre cast to the reserves. Which may only be 1 or 2 months at the current hiring and implantation rates. Obviously if vacancy bids shrink in MCO you'll see longer reserve bids...
