How exactly is ABX management beating ATI management in terms of expansion? Please explain... I'm looking for some good entertainment.

baldwin, if, as you say, you are looking for entertainment, go here:

Boobhub.com
or
Best Christian Movies: Family Christian

But stop trolling the hiring page. Some of us are actually using it for its intended purpose.

Just calling Kougarok on his BS statement re: management. He obviously has no meaningful response... I guess you just want a one-sided opinion too

Today was day 1, so it's sort of difficult to answer your first two questions. The general atmosphere, from the interview on through today, is that everybody is happy you're here, and given that we all made a conscious decision to be here, we're all pretty happy as well.

Lodging is on you. Nearly everybody has been able to find something less expensive than a hotel, and this class is twice as large as usual. With the offer letter, HR sent out a list of rentals - I'm guessing it's built mostly from input from previous classes.

The last official communication I received before today says the company provides initial uniforms. You're only on the hook for it if you leave within the first year.

As Reactivity said, uniforms (other than pilot shirts) are covered by the company. If you leave before your first anniversary then it comes out of your last paycheck.

Training is good. The instructors want you to succeed...nobody is trying to bust you. They sent me to MIA for sim, so I only had to get lodging in ILN for 3 weeks (indoc and systems). If they send you to DEN or MIA, they provide hotel and per diem.

Thanks Koug. So with the announcement of 100 in 2017, it will take it to almost 400. Will that be the end of it or is it projected for a higher number when it is all said and done?
