Waterski recall rumor...
 
So I heard that TSA is recalling for January. Any truth to that? Does anyone know specific numbers? Did any of you got the letter?

It's true. Letters were mailed yesterday. They're looking for 54 recalls with 16 upgrades with classes every Monday in January '11. More planned for later in the year...

DryMotorBoatin 11-23-2010 05:17 PM

uh oh...did MW get ahold of some company letterhead again this november?! hes quite the jokester

ManBearPig 11-23-2010 05:21 PM

Thats excellent news but unfortunately I'll believe it when I see those guys back on property...I seem to vaguely recall something like this happening last year...my memory is short, but it ain't that short

undflyboy06 11-23-2010 06:47 PM

Now the tough decision comes for the guys that have been fortunate enough to find other jobs. Do they stay or go back. I'm in the same dilemma.

gary0724 11-23-2010 06:47 PM

Just got my recall letter, what happened to Randy Zehnder?
Why are they recalling?

skippy 11-23-2010 06:54 PM

Unless u desperately need health insurance or need to get current while u continue ur job search- ud be foolish to go back

vaporlock1215 11-23-2010 08:05 PM

Gary, about how far down the list are you? Past 54?

CaptainCarl 11-23-2010 10:04 PM

Hmm... Letter must not have made it's way down yonder yet... Decisions, decisions...

Purpleanga 11-23-2010 11:12 PM

It's that time of the year again.:rolleyes: I'll believe it when I'm putting the gear up.

Salukipilot4590 11-24-2010 04:25 AM

Well I just rose from my deep slumber to find a text about this....


All I can say is:

I'm pretty sure RZ was promoted to DO or something, he's still there.

Get recalled just in time to go on strike?!? Sorry. I don't want any part of that. You can keep your recall letter TSA. Save the postage.

Well, unfortunately getting released is purely false hope, so dont worry about that.

DryMotorBoatin 11-24-2010 02:54 PM

to all those accepting the recall...welcome aboard boys...

gary0724 11-24-2010 04:57 PM

bryris 11-24-2010 06:28 PM

2 years later. What have folks been doing this whole time?

I'm working a desk job these days. Making twice the money I was. I'm locked down until next Sept for logistical reasons, but it'll be interesting to see if this is worth going back to at that time. My recency will be fairly stale though, but not an insurmountable problem.

lucky!!!!!

flynavyj 11-26-2010 02:26 PM

Crewdog!!! Sorry i missed your party bud, hope you had a great time. Ya know,i wish i had a recall, but they wouldn't let me volenteer furlough, so now i'm just on the sidelines...oh well i guess.

Time2Fly 11-26-2010 06:18 PM

Could anyone that's gotten a letter post their original class date?

I played a real fun game of telephone last night, you know the game from when you were a kid. Several guys in my class (Feb 08) said they got letters, after asking a few questions it turned into "well I didn't actually get mine but this other guy who is junior to me got his so I know mine is coming"

Just trying to see how far down the letters are going..

Do you just email the cp to respond? You'd think they'd mention how on the letter. sigh...

This is funny, because EVERYONE i've spoken too has said the same thing!!

pgriffin 11-27-2010 12:05 PM

My buddy who was in the last hired class (April 08) got his letter today.

A10crewdawg 11-27-2010 12:53 PM

October 07, my letter should be in the box at home. Haven't checked it since Tuesday

Interesting......Two of my buddies and I are July 07 and have not received ours yet. Talk about being organized. The place hasn't changed at all.

pgriffin 11-27-2010 02:47 PM

Or maybe it's your post office.... relax, if junior people to you got theirs you'll get one too.

So how many are actually going to accept this one?

I called Friday and his voice mail said he was going to be out of the office Wednesday until the end of the week. So we all should hear something Monday.
