I mean, worst case you ask and they so no. It's not like they'll revoke your CJO for simply asking

Thanks for the insights.

Are classes typically held on Mondays?

Recently met a delta guy who said they were looking at 1800 new hires next year. Is there any way this is true? I feel like I’ve been hearing 500.

I haven't heard 1800, but the optimists say that DL felt the need to play their cards close to their chest after putting out more optimistic numbers before and having to reign them back. So some are speculating DL is publicly saying they plan to hire 500 to cover retirements, but secretly plan to hire more than that.

What kind of times do people who are getting called have nowadays?
