Think he was referring to the "scheduled deliveries alone" piece, which would hint at more, in his opinion. Why would they include that language otherwise? Let's do reading comprehensions.

I get what he's saying, but I do not think it was a slip or hint.

Oh. I was confused because you addressed the numbers part, not the extraneous words at the end. FaceBiter brofist to you Sir.

iHateIAD,

That was a damn book! haha but thanks for the tips, I need all that I can get. Sounds like I have some **** to get done. But yea I'm straight on the TSO headset, my lightspeeds zulus finally died on me after 8 years of use so I went ahead and got the Bose A20s. Are you saying I should go ahead and order the luggage and leather jacket now? Or wait till the begging of class?

Order the full uniform, jacket and all. Wear it on the first day. Let people know you mean business. Be sure to get your callsign on the jacket name tag.

No, just have an idea of what you want, and take care of it in the first week or so of class. The only deadline the company gives you is 30 days to get your benefits in. They don't care when you get luggage or uniforms, just be ready to go come IOE. Comes quick though, especially when you are doing training and sims. Thats why I say do it the first week which is a joke, and the focus is on admin anyway. Don't be bashful about going to see the uniform ladies at the end of the hallway and asking to try on the uniforms. They give you a form for the luggage works discounts and the leather jacket, and a couple other forms, but they conveniently forgot to give it to us, so we got it a bit late.
