On Reserve

We’re you told that you’d have little to no reserve as a DEC in LGA? That’s what I’ve been told but I’ve been trying to figure out how that could be true - I understand it’s a perpetual junior base but...

Glad your interview experience was good. Did they give you a class date?

Would’ve been nice to have had the info prior to interview but whatever. It’s Eagle, I worked there before so I was used to being lied to. Then 2 snowflakes grilled the Sh!t out of me on technical. It was clear I wasn’t welcomed there—even tho I’d been a captain for 5 years at old AMR Eagle. I’d have been 20 years senior to them—if not for 9-11.

But here’s the best part of the interview. When the last snowflake came to give me the “bad news”. I informed him that I already had 2 other job offers with class dates for both.

Hahahahaha hahahahaha hahahahaha

Net result I have a much better offer with 2 other great companies and those dumbasses are still short. Nothing has changed there but the paint job.

I got the last laugh.

Thank god for those two snowflakes.

Some new hire DEC’s have bid to MIA and ORD which also means reserve.

Hope this helps.

New Hire

Any idea how many went to NEC and OCC and how many spots are left in ORD? I have a DEC class date for Aug 13.
