There's been a number of us who have been hired in the last 5 years that were waiting on the sidelines to see if this place was going to get better. Looks like it won't. I"ve received no less then 20 emails and texts from guys who are filling out all their apps today. For those looking to come aboard, if you didn't apply to southern beforehand, then don't come here because that's where it's headed. OTOH, if you need a job, then keep updating because we're in for a mass exodus.

Best of luck to all.

The good news for the folks like Fillmore, they won't waste anytime waiting on a good contract. Punch out ASAP if rumors are true.

What rumors? Everyone keeps talking about rumors, but it would help if you could share the rumors with those of us about to jump in with both feet.

Official email coming from the union today. Stand by.

Just tuned in, what's the latest nasty rumor? Switch the 777's over SA and push AAWW into BK to renegotiate a crappier contract?

EDIT: Got my answer on the other thread, sorry.

Hopefully they are "updating" their apps. Filling out an app today is way behind the power curve.

Rule 1...don't buy into the rumors. You're gonna do fine. There won't be any furloughs. Some folks just like to stir the pot.

Welcome aboard.

The "Atlas is purchasing SA" in the cargo forum.
