PSA Training Moves Like A Truck Stop Toilet
My buddy works there, got hired in April. They are so backed up they just sent him a letter saying to plan on coming back for a 3 Day "Refresher" prior to his oral. He has already been waiting 5 weeks for the oral. Now I can understand waiting on Sims or even IOE, but to let your training department get so plugged up the only solution is to to bring guys back for refresher ground school after being out of ground school 60 days???? Someone get a plunger in there and help these poor fellas out!

And it is an issue. Once you put someone through ground school, you kind of have an obligation to get them at the very least through their oral in a timely manner. Otherwise you're really doing them a disservice.

Not when they told the new hire class to "not go anywhere until training is over"......"we may call you at any time" And the screwed up thing, they did recently call someone wanting them to catch a flight the next morning to go for an oral that afternoon. Wouldn't work out so well if they were in Europe backpacking on FO pay. Oh yeah, they also aren't in CASS until completion of IOE. Makes getting around a little tougher.
