FSU I commuted from salt lake for about 6 months (with a hard line) and I was more exhausted and miserable than I ever had been. There's something about sleeping on the cockpit floor of jetblue that just gets to you. . .On the up-side I got some bad-ass skiing in!

Just heard that some mainline guys went into JK office and said that the Piedmont guys are doing horrible in class and the PSA guys are doing great. Apparently the Piedmont guys can't work an FMS worth s h it and the mainline guys are ****ed. Guess there goes any chance of any Piedmont guys getting hired at mainline. This place just got a little more sucky.

Maybe someone overheard a conversation and is playing telephone until this rumor got blown out of proportion.

Assumption: They are talking about the recalls who are going through training right now. A significant number of those recalled are the guys who were hired 3 years ago (under the Pref hiring agreement) from PDT and PSA who got on line and shortly there after were furloughed. They are not talking about any of the "pref hiring poolies". Those guys are still at PDT and PSA waiting.
I could be wrong, but I don't think so.
