I get the sense things are improving, but who knows. Michael Darda is a CNBC contributor and a prominent economist for a well-known hedge fund. Last year, he was as big a bear as there could be, but today he has become a raging bull on economic recovery. He's got a good track record. I just thought I would throw that out so I could end on a positive.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
You will be able to find a job but it will only be at a place that no one would go to under normal hiring conditions, which means you'll be stuck. The others will not be hiring for a long time and there's actually talks about more furloughs at the regionals. The best part is once you actually make it to an airline 6 to 24 months from now you'll be making 20,000 with a very bleak future. Good luck! I can't imagine why anyone would be looking or training for the regionals.
