Side note: I am sure most street hires are just happy to be there and are not too interested in the politics and cultural differences..... the UAL furloughees in class at TK South (IAH) are not recalls. It is a job offer with certain terms.

You're right Snarge!! They could care less what people are in class (recalled or new hire)/the name of the training facility or any of YOUR opinions!! So what is the point of your post?

I wasn't on a "so called" rant? I was asking him a question, thats why I put a "?" and at the end of the sentence!(guess you need a few more things to understand!) I was calling him a little hypocriticle saying that they don't want to hear all the political stuff and then he lists political stuff!! (I can spell it out more for you Carol, just let me know?) And as far as leaving "hate and pettiness" out of it. Coming from you, you've got to be kidding!! Talk about a hypocrite!!

TK421,

Any word yet or are you trying to make your inbox explode with mental thoughts?

Ok Carol, I'll stop!! Have a Good Weekend!!

Hasn't worked yet on my phone!

The point is, if one is lucky to get hired, there are complex social, cultural and labor issues going on, right in ones own new hire class.

As I said, you can be indifferent to it, or you can be aware. Your choice, but the United guys, just like anyone, anywhere, don't care to be mis-identified. Take it one step further, while one is on probation smiling and keeping their head low, they can tap into the United guys who can and probably will go to bat for the new hires.....

The CAL jobs aren't recalls for the United guys.

Finally, if I were a new hire, I'd hope to shed the scab friendly management friendly CAL label ASAP after ISL.....

Questions?

....+1.....

No questions! (except your original post said the new hires were not interested in politics and culture yet in both your posts thats what your dying to tell them!)However, that's what I thought you meant!! Be careful though, Carol may get mad at you for spreading "hate and pettiness" on the new hire thread! Oh wait, he only does it with CAL responses. But, BigFatDaddy" will +1 you, so all is good!
