They said they were pretty well staffed up north. I don't know, I just got IAH though. The most recent class was 12 Q IAH, 6 Saab BOS. We were told the next class would be 8 Saab BOS. I was actually looking forward to EWR because it's an easier commute, but now I'm afraid to bid out because I don't think I'd be able to get back into IAH.

Then again, take all that for what you will because they switched things around on us about 4 times over the course of a week.

We had a guy purposely turn down the Q in favor of the Saab because he was from Houston and figured he could hold it sooner on the Saab. It was awkward for a second when they came in and sent us all to IAH and him to BOS. There's literally no telling what's going to happen until the final day they assign things.
