My last company I missed being furloughed by seven numbers. I would take the earliest available.

Thanks for the reply. That gives me hope. Unfortunately my boss found out during the background check and it has been a ROUGH few days. Can’t wait to start.

These two things. Every single number counts.

Ditto. Same here.

Do you recall if all your references were called prior to the DB or just a few out of the internal/externals?

I had 3 out of 6 references called 5 days after my Aug 21 interview. Got the call from CP on Sept 5th Decision Board. Waiting for a class date now. All Good!

I was called often to move up in class. Shortest notice was 4 days. I said I needed two weeks they obliged.
I echo what others say about getting on before Jan 1. I had to wait 26 months to get my first profit sharing check.

You're off probation in January 2020 and conversely, 2020 is the first year you were employed from January 1 until the end of the year making you eligible for profit sharing. Now, if profit sharing is paid in March, you don't see your 2020 profit sharing until March 2021.

26 months on the property, and a 3rd year FO.

Moral of the story... get into December class if at all possible.
