After listening in on the XJ furlough conference call, I got the impression a number of the returning xj guys (LGA Saab) plan on bidding upcoming vacancies for Pinnacle classes. On the same note, a number were curious about bidding other equipment and bases throughout 9L's system. Either way, chances are "the most junior guys" in the domiciles will see some movement no matter what the outcome of SLI. A couple senior FOs I know are even contemplating taking the seat lock so they can put an end to their 2 leg commutes. Lax, I'm assuming you're looking to do something along the same lines. Good luck, hope you end up where you want!

What does this mean for those just/still getting hired at 9E and 9L? Hope the hiring outlast the vacancies... If there's a flood of people already on property that are planning to move (I'm assuming there's more than just a few) you'll be staying junior for quite a while. So keep your fingers crossed for the hiring to continue on into next year. It's important to know that things can change in a heartbeat. I don't think this is nearly as likely, but there can always be displacements/furloughs. SLI is going to affect us all in one way or another, so hold on tight and hope for the best!

This is just my opinion, anyone else have any thoughts or outlooks?
