They are still on probation so if the company wanted too they could terminate them...it would be stupid, but it also wouldn't surprise me.

I was told they would be on furlough until their seniority number could hold something not on the Colgan certificate.

Hah with how hard pressed they are to find people? They are warm boddies that made it in the door. The company will be happy about that...

At this point the company doesn't have much say, its the insurance company.

Do you folks even have the faintest idea about what you're talking about or do you just have fun transmitting speculative creations of your imaginations?

Hawk, if you're expressing your opinion about what you THINK should happen then ok. I can respect your opinion. However, nothing has been determined as to what WILL happen with these guys. Just remember, these are real people who have already severed ties to their last job and have at least themselves, if not a family, to take care of.

I think it's just fun. Although I like to think I have a faint idea and you all are just crazy!
