I particularly like the reader comment at the end of the article:

"WT*?
Let me get this straight: 1.4 B loss during the final 3 mos of 2008, net operating losses throughout 2008 and you want to buy another airline? Further, your venture gets approved despite of all the warning signs visible to all parties? This is insane and MSP will get f'd over when Delta finds it must sell all NWA's assets in order to stay afloat."

I wonder what this means for CMR?
That guy is an idiot, if he actually read the article..he would've seen that 900 MILLION of that 1.4 billion was due to merger costs.

Yes: Cash or credit, paper or plastic. Congrats, the job is yours. Unless of course, a furloughed Home Depot guy applies first. Home Depot laid off 7,000 yesterday.

Yea i'm reading up on WOOD for the professional lumberer.

and the WIM.,..the Wood Information Manual.

but if anyone has any other recent interview gouges that'd be great.

the situational questions are what worry me.

What do you do if the customer shows you his bowed wood?
What do you do if the customer says that we bent his wood?

Stuff like that.

This is where your Comair training could prove invaluable. Of course the answer is: Turn around and bend over.

Yes....place both hands in front of interviewer's face. Make sure they can see your 10 fingers. Count them outloud. Then take your measuring tape and measure the distance between you and the next wall. Tell them you are not going to run that distance into said wall head first, because it'll give you a "booboo". End.

You just proved them that
a.- your'e physically capable,
b.- mentallly able,
c.- made it thru the 4th grade, an
d.- have the "knowhow" to differentiate between right and wrong.

Now, just don't drool in front of them......

If you've ever been to a Lowes, you know B and C are not required.

In this case that would be what boys and girls???? Feb. 2 thats right. Wow guys Wow. What are we complaining about today now???
