Not 100% sure but it seems your employee #s are in order based on age in your class, whether that has anything to do with seniority is beyond me!

Employee # has nothing to do with seniority #. It is like every other airline: for people who have the same hire date, those who are oldest are the most senior. As it has been since the invention of the seniority list.

Oh, and your seniority # is issued by date of orientation, not class date, so no matter how quick you finish the CBT, you ain't moving up the list.

Seniority goes by age in the class. We had a class of 12 and I was the youngest so I'm on the bottom. MEM is nice. Has long legs, most of the time no canada flying which is nice. Hotels on overnights are nice to stay at for the most part. Just a little about MEM. Hope that helps everyone.

Thanks. I'm thinking MEM will be the easiest commute for me. 5 nonstops a day one of which is a Compass flight.

Although I don't commute to MEM as I live there, When I was commuting out of it I used FedEx too. They can be an excellent backup as they have flights going all over the country.
As far as the Compass flights go, there is really NO way your getting bumped off one of our planes as we have 3 extra jumpseats. You would have to have 3 CMP guys senior to you on the same flight and it be full to get bumped. Almost impossible.

Anyone interviewed yet in IAD? Heading out there tomorrow and just want to see if the process is the same. Also, how long are the interviews lasting?

Hey, let us know what happens. I got a call today for an interview, and I was surprised when they said IAD (really Chantily) is where they will be doing it (interviewing).
