We are not on strike - yet. The May 1st picketing is informational picketing outside the corporate offices to draw attention to our cause. Therefore, if you really did have an interview on May 1st, going to the interview would not be an issue (although I don't see why anybody would want to come to Pinnacle at the moment)...

Just got an invite for an interview. The email lists dates for April and May for interview and classes, but nothing after that. Is Pinnacle going to slow hiring after May, or is the invite just for a small period of time that will eventually be updated? I would not be suprised if they slow, just curious as to what you guys over there are seeing! Thanks!
Just a question. If you're a SAAB guy why Pinnicle?

Pretty good.
To those that will be there on the 1st.... It is an informational picket. We are supporting our pilots and most have been at Pinnacle while the contract was amendable so we can't hold it against you, we can only warn you of the current situation. I will be there myself so maybe I can put some names with faces.
My last name is obvious and I will have a red lanyard on (I think there are only a few P2P guys in MEM).

I will be flying, I have heard some stories about the hotel and vehicles getting broken into or just flat out stolen. Do you know anyone else in the class? Where you coming from? I am in TX.

I just took the written yesterday and got a 90. I used sheppardair.com, they have a pretty good software system and it was only 75 bucks. Studied for about 4 or 5 days then took the exam and it turned out to be real easy. I just updated my app and resume and set it out to pretty much everybody, now just waiting on the calls/emails.

How about an interview later in the month? I was working on the end of May. Is this an "official informational" picket? Would it be preceived as a picket cross, i.e. scab. Not trying to split hairs just checking the facts.
I understand the many issues surrounding the airline right now but would still like to interview for the experience. Your thoughts please.

They won't interview you without your written done. I got a call with out it, but they said call back when I finished the written.
