I could see interviews in October and CJO’s going out in November for classes in Jan ‘22. Would be a nice Christmas present for the guys that wanted to be here for the past 2 years

Better than last years Christmas log!!

Still tho, unless deck parties and Fly Days return I’d wait out the new hire class.

What better Christmas present than working 11.9 months and not getting profit sharing?

Tell me what airlines got profit sharing last year? I’m sure any new hires that we get this year are coming from places that either don’t offer it or didn’t get it anyways

I think he is referring to the fact that JAN new hires won’t get profit sharing for the year they were hired. It has always been this way at SWA, better to get hired in the fall because then you are only working a few months without profit sharing.

I get that, I was a JAN hire, but what I’m getting at is that I doubt they would care much about missing a year of profit sharing versus staying where they have been

Profit sharing celebrations seem to be a "big deal", and while I wouldn't delay my hire date just for PS considerations, it was a bit like a slap in the face to watch everyone make such a big deal out of it while waiting almost 2 years to join in. That's ok though, it gave me almost 2 years of angst-free APU use and 2-enging taxi, while saving money was somebody else's problem and not mine. I'm not sure if that's the attitude they intended on fostering with PS rules, but that's what they get. Leadership is more than bean counting and making your employees wait up to 2 years before feeling they're fully part of the team is simply poor leadership. Blaming it on "the contract" is a pathetic excuse too.

There's a lot to fix in our contract. This is not at the top of the list, but maybe PS should be prorated for that first year.

It would already be prorated by going off of your W2.
