As for C, go interview and worry about that later if they offer you the job and you still think C might be a better opportunity at that point. It's a bit of a tough spot for people with integrity, but this business just works this way. Do not feel bad about leaving A or B for C if you choose, just don't expect them to ever give you another shot if things don't work out at C. Good luck. SteamJet |

Unfortunately the only management with integrity seems to be Southwest. Take all of the offers and YOU decide which one works best for you. I guarantee you that all of those airlines management types wouldn't lose one wink of sleep when they furlough, why should you?
If you're going to put your internal rec guy in a bind, at least call him and tell him ahead of time of your decision. I'm sure he'd appreciate that. And I'm sure he'd understand you making the best decision based on your situation. |

Hey Steam,
I'm w/you 100% and know what you're going through. 23 yr AF guy here, and I am still trying to get used to life on the outside. I'm still getting used to the idea that I can go work for someone and bail anytime I want. Loyalty is desirable, but not always a given--from either side. |

Loyalty cannot be bought, but it can be rented. :D |

Nothing personal. Most professionals understand this and don't take it personal. I'm UPS because SWA and FEDEX were not shopping when I was in the market. <g> Any one of the those I would have been thrilled. All fantastic companies. I turned down DHL (was a poolie at both UPS and DHL) Started at UPS and one week into GS when DHL called with a start date. When I called HR to politely turn it down, the HR woman was extraordinarily nice and congratulatory and thanked me for a prompt response. She was class! |
