The acknowledgment is a carry over from the bid period. They did not just arbitrarily award your standing bid unless you didn't delete it during bidding.
Well here is a news flash for you. Some people were already finished bidding before that memo was ever sent out, and it you go to the pbs page itself and not through online you never got the memo. Good luck on that ord upgrade.

You can't continue into PBS to bid without acknowledging the memo! Time to put on the big boy pants there skipper! If you bid the second it comes out it's probably wise to check it again before it closes, kinda like the vacancy bids! I guess you need your hand held for everything... You made it through upgrade?!

If you go to the direct login to pbs and not thru Skywest online you do not get the memo. I do things right the first time so why would I check before the bid closes. I can provide the links no if you like? And I do have something you can hold.....

That was the last time I wore long sleeves

Ok fashionistas, do we have to buy shirts/pants/jackets at the sources listed in the welcome package? Or can we find *very* similar looking stuff and get that tailored?

Does anyone makes a fuss if your pants are wool instead of poly, or you find a leather jacket that is close but not exactly the same color/sheen as Perrone's?
(as in: can we get written up?)

I just like my clothes to look like they were made for me, not some hand-me-downs. Don't really care about the garment-based pecking order of who's cool. Thanks!

As long as the pilot shirt is white and the pants are black, you are fine.
Lots of guys buy stuff at ACutAbove. The founder was a former Skywest pilot.

Pants from Walmart (16.99 vs. 69.99)
Shirts from Marv Golden (VanHeusen a few bucks less)
Even the sweaters can be found for 30%+ less elsewhere.

Black is black and pilot shirts are pilot shirts.

Just don't grab any Dockers (anything cotton). When you wash them once, they fade, they're gray and you look incredibly dopey.

If you get hired, can you choose to wait for a 175 class?
