Unfortunately JR would not be the best source for that. Reason I say that is because last time we all found out, via forums etc., before he and or WB knew about such..... They actually found out after we asked them about it and DOJR at the same confirmed such.... Anyways with that I would say we are a LOT better staffed then we were. HOWEVER when you only upgrade a handful and recall 40 it leaves you in a rather less then favorable position..... With that attrition is slow if not happening at all.... The best thing we can HOPE for is that some of the pilots hire at Mainline are asked to go to a class.... If that happens then I cannot see as to how we would not recall some more....
If I hear anything I will let you know.... Myself and the furlough coordinator try to get updates about such from HR.... As of my last convo there were nothing in the talks. However, we were not planning on doing more FA's this year and that has changed recently due to the Holidays and people leaving..... Hang in there.... HOPEFULLY soon...
