Now if we could buy another 1 or 2 maybe I could move up the food chain.
existing tails, not new aircraft...

Congratulations! Hope to get the call sooner than later... Does anybody know if the lack of a call today automatically means that one is not in that class and late Dec/Early Jan is the next earliest option?

I little while ago folks were discussing places to find a gym. I'm at SUU now at the Hilton Garden. The Hilton has the typical hotel room sized fitness room but if you walk 5 minutes away there's a 24hr Fitness. If you go to their website you'll find a 3 day free pass. I used that. Of course they tried to sell me on a membership which I quickly and politely said I didn't need since I'm not here that often. According to the website you can do it every 6 months. It's a decent gym to kill a few hours. Quickest way to get there is through Best Buy then out the backside mall entrance next to Red Robin.

Not necessarily. They'll call you up to two weeks prior if need be. If you can swing it, you could even call the Friday before class to see if anybody dropped out last minute. Guy in my new hire class called on Friday, started class on Monday. YMMV

Is Atlas giving preferential interviewing for the guys that lost their jobs from the DHL's airplane relocation?

Apparently they are. I have heard from the union that they have an agreement with the company to preferentially interview ABX guys who are getting displaced.

Our ExCo chair has said we'd like to take them all. Haven't heard any numbers on furloughs - rumor mill was saying that increased flying elsewhere would reduce the need to furlough at ABX. Any truth to that?
