On the L-Xjet side they are hiring 32 a month for the rest of the year. If your hired on the front end of that you will not be on reserve for 2 years. I was hired on the ASA side last October and had a line for last month and this month. You don't know what your talking about when it comes to ExpressJet.

I mean that's OK, just tell the poor guy or gal that.

I would choose ExpressJet. Better pay and management has got to be better than Republic. Republic domiciles open, close, open again, and close again. BUF, RIC, GRR, MCO, FLL, CVG, DEN, GSO and on and on. Management at Republic does not care about its employees and they are great at union busting tactics. 5+ years in contract negotiations and not any closer than year 1.

If you think your gonna get a whim upgrade at republic your fooling yourself. It will still be at least five to seven years for te new hires now
I don't fly for RAH, but that's just common sense. My roommate is on Xjet EMJ side and will be holding a line next month, he's been there 1.5 years.

Just curious, before the ATL folks took over your payroll was it ever screwed up by the HOU folks?
