No one wanted to work for NK in '07. Glad it worked out for you.

TRUE

If you have the cash to blow on a lottery ticket, have at it.

If you are looking at a ligit chance of getting hired, save ur cash.

Sure, this is akin to urinating on Kitt Darby's grave, but so be it.

Couldn't you say the same prior 2011? That would include your hire date Ram.

Legit is getting your face in front of those responsible for hiring.

Agreed, paying $100+ is wrong (yet so is Ram for telling those interested not not to go).

Catch 22 yet I would attend. Show early and you might make a good first impression. Just my .02.

.

At what point did I say don't go?

My exact words were: "If you have the cash to blow on a lottery ticket, have at it."

Yaw, I'm glad you are on board with NK. As for Ram, I was going to ask him, once again, why he has not left for greener pastures during his tenure at Spirit, but it is too obvious why he has not moved on.

I think we all bxxxh and complain about our coworkers, airplanes and company in general, we find anything to channel personal and professional frustrations. WE ALL DO IT.

I am not defending RAM, we do disagree on many things, but because he makes comments that we don’t like it doesn’t mean that he wants to move on. I think he is smart enough to know when to go and when to stay, just like us.

Just the nature of the bizz.

Cheers.

I concur with you sailor... I just wanted him to say something positive about NK for once. But a mid 90's hire has had many a chance to leave....

I agree shifty..we all have different reasons for everything. We want everything to be flawless. Amazingly I'm sure we all can be drinking a beer together and agreeing on many things. Like I said, this is our corner to vent.

I don't personally know Ram nor who he is, but I have a feeling he isn't all that bad.

With time, our team it's gonna get bigger and with that more groups will form with new, old and off property ideas. Creating new arguments. Also our new contract will be due for renewal and that will open more cans.
At the end we still do that SAP turn in the middle of the night together.

cheers.
