I'll start by saying that I'm no fan of Soaper myself, but I have to raise the BS flag when I hear crap like this. There was no CRM/System classes in December and he was in attendance at all the November dates. This past week was the first class in January and haven't heard from anyone in the class is he was there or not. Either way 1 class missed wouldn't be a trend of not going.
I also guarantee you they are very aware of the number of people leaving.

FWIW, I had training in November and Soaper did not show. Further, he has not shown for any of the classes I've had since his arrival.

If you are trying to come over here...just look at the facts....why do you think the new hires that has spent over a year (which means out of probation) are leaving as soon as something else comes up?

That so many people are leaving within a year or so after arriving says a lot not only about their views of the company, but also about the doors that this job can open. So while I wouldn't encourage anybody to come to ABX as a great career prospect (at least as it stands now), I also wouldn't fault anyone for taking the job with an eye toward using it as a springboard toward better opportunities.

So uh, anyone want to gaze in to their crystal ball and give a guess on when a contract is reached? And if, when reached, it will be Kalitta +?

When and if it is reached AND ratified, it will absolutely be Kalitta +.

But that’s all a big if. As anybody knows who has been through negotiations, we won’t get a contract until management wants one. Right now, they clearly don’t. It will take outside pressure to change that. In the meantime, we will continue to have a lot of junior FO attrition.
