Just goes to show you it's better to wait it out than give up your number...even if your number happens to be in a pool somewhere.

What do you have to lose by staying in our hiring pool? You can always go somewhere else if they hire you first.

Wow, sucks for those guys! You're def right about me having no problem with sticking it out with the pool. Like I mentioned before, I took an LOA from my prev job to go to 9E in case class got cancelled or I flunked out or whatever. However, for me to go back to my old job, they gotta have a need for me. And as of now they do, but with the job market now being pilot saturated, they won't at some point. So that's my fear, realizing that 9E is not gonna call only to find that my old employer is also sufficientlly staffed. :eek: That's why I hope they announce something, anything, soon!
