I suppose we should tell new hires to skip medical insurance for 12 months, pay for their own training, and give them minimum wage for the privilege too?

Seriously, suck it up buttercup. What, you got a family? Bills that won't wait? I guess you should have planned your life better.

A few relatively short GUM CA TDYs were offered a few months ago via CCS message. I recall they were approximately 3 weeks in duration and awarded to 3 LAX/SFO CAs.

We will know we’re back in tall cotton when Den starts having un filled F/O slots.

My initial new hire bid in 1997 was Den 300 (737) F/O. I was 5th in seniority in my class and got it.

I think we're about to be in deep kimchi. Oil and the stock market are in free fall. Brace. Brace. Brace.

Lower oil prices are good for us and the market is down on Apples lower iPhone demands and the idiot Maxine Waters comments on blocking Trumps banking reforms. Hardly the next Great Depression starting

I may have missed the exact bottom but's not like I'm going to need that money for the next decade.

When my wife starts nonrevving instead of buying a ticket when she travels, I'll start to get concerned about this business. Until then, I'll resign myself to a middle seat in E- when commuting to/from work.

There are a few out there that act that way...

I know a guy that turned it down in 1994 because of the Guam possibility, instead of the top 20% at United he is still at Expressjet. He is also one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, to this day.

Are you frozen in Guam for an amount of time if you take the bid? Or do guys use it as a way to do a lateral or down a/c transfer to get out of a 2 yr seat lock?

You are not froze for taking a Guam bid. I think the only catch is you have to stay 18 months if you want the paid move.
