But........ they've started to give out class dates to some, even as late as Jan24.

I was told one day for orientation, drug testing, and finger printing, and seven days for requal (three days in the classroom, followed by four sim sessions).

That I don't know. Not to mention the information I was told could be wildly inaccurate, so take it for whatever it's worth... if anything.

It could be true. As long as you did the 100 or 120 hours whatever it was before you were furloughed, you do the short training.

Any idea how long it would be for the people that didn't get to complete their 120 hours of consolidation of knowledge?

By now I'm sure everyone knows/has responded. If they're waiting it's going to be like running out the clock in a high school football game.

They are making phone calls to issue class dates.

No they don't have all the responses. They're still waiting for the 7 days to expire on them. But the fact that some have gotten a call and some haven't is totally puzzling since it defeats the whole purpose of them waiting in the first place.

Agreed, but I recieved my letter right around the 28th of Nov. Seeing how they probably sent them out all at the same time since I'm closer to the bottom of the list, it doesn't make sense that they are still waiting for people to respond. Last time I checked you can mail a letter in the US and have it pretty much anywhere in the country in 3 - 4 days. The USPS tries to deliver 3 times then if not picked up they send it back. Just seems to me that it is way outside of that timespan. Anyone else agree?
