I read that. I don't really understand why everyone keeps asking about the pref. hiring in the first place. If we have it, then we have it. I didn't realize that we can have it and then it just goes away if hiring slows.

I remember on a crewnews in CLT a while ago somebody asked about that pref. hiring program and the vp of express or something like that said that they saw no reason to discontinue it and that it worked out well for them. I just don't understand why it was even suggested that it might have stopped in the first place.

But aparently, it was a good question since now they're saying that they never had one. But somebody in SBY thought we had the pref. hiring enought to post it on the original FO job posting! (before quickly reposting it with the pref. hiring taken out).

This "ask piedmont" is a joke with all this 'new airplane' and 'preferential hiring' bs, I'm sick of this carrot on a stick routine! It's like asking the ramp workers what Parker's big plans are for the company. These pdt "executives" don't know what is up until mainline tells them. I don't even know what the hell our ceo even does. At least Parker steers his company and makes command decisions and plans out long-term strategy and runs an airline...it seems by the sound of their clueless answers that ours just waits for mainline to give them a new schedule for the next month
