Maybe it can, maybe it can't. I can't control it. I will say that UAL is hiring 48 per week...don't know if they can keep up that torrid pace. At least management seems to recognize the dilemma, which is at least a step in the right direction.. The rapid rise in seniority % is a huge benefit for those close to the bottom. Depending on a/c purchases, only marginally beneficial for more senior types.

It’s not that we can’t train 200/month, it’s that we cant do that on top of retraining the rest of the airline to be where they should have been 9 months ago.
the reason United is able to hire so much now is they didn’t waste all their training resources trying to keep an FA union off property. But ya know, optics and all

So your saying rapid hiring isn't a good thing? Or you don't believe it is more beneficial for the lowest seniority guy compared to senior guys?. Maybe I'm imparting fallacious ideas to my kids. A year ago furloughs were the biggest concern for them .The massive hiring hiring doesn't affect me at all. It's a continuum. I don't think I was talking about age 65...but you can have at it if that's your flavor of the day to be upset about.

Well since we are in the Delta new hiring thread, I was attempting to talk about....well....in 2 words....new hiring... and its impact on those newly hired.
I'm prolly in agreement with the age 65 thing and the retirement thing,, but not my baliwick.
