I know you guys are wrapped up in furlough mitigation and displacements and nobody is thinking about hiring anytime soon. But that being said, when do you think Brown will need to hire again? With the way things look now, do you see any hiring before 2012 or is it too far off to even have a guess?

(The forums are a lot more fun when there is hiring going on!)
Razor – I just finished my recurrent and as always got lots of very accurate information from our van drivers, soda machine vendors and ground instructors (in that order)…

Well, actually after having a chance to listen in on many discussions at the training center (who said we go there to study?) it does seem like the things are ‘bottoming out’ sooner than we expected (good news) but the company will not want to admit it for quite some times because of the MOU agreement, etc…

I am cautiously optimistic and of course very hopeful that by the end of 2010 or no later than 2011 we’ll be hiring again… Of course, not too long ago I predicted the oil price would reach $200 a barrel by 2008 so what do I know?

As far as those in the pool… IF I was a person in the pool every time there’s a job fair our recruiters attend (not sure if we’re attending any right now except the OBAP and WAI) I’d try to show up just to shake their hands so they know you’re still interested and remember your face… Just my thoughts, I’m sure I’m wrong here too…
