Reading your posts, I can't help but think that you are counting your chickens before they hatch. You act as if the job is already yours. Do they no longer interview candidates? I'm assuming you just throw in an application and a UAL id and training packet comes in the mail two weeks later? This is what I call entitlement. Pay your dues. You're a regional fo; you have a long way to go. Who knows, maybe they will hire you someday, but maybe they won't. Stop writing as if the job is a guarantee. Furthermore, I hope that you would proofread your application and resume' a little more than you do your posts (grammatical errors). And as far as being the kid of a ual pilot; I was one too. It don't mean squat.
Grammar? "Who knows, maybe they will hire you someday, but maybe they won't." This is a complete run on sentence. You better be a real hot mama with all that mouth.

I'v been reading the threads in here with great enthusiasm and I am glad to hear that some of you are coming back to work. I feel for all of you as my dad is a pilot for UA, and though never furloughed, I have seen and personally felt what all 7500 of you have gone through.
I have wanted to fly for UA since I could talk and I am on my way to pursuing that dream but I don't want to do it in the wrong manner.
My question is when all of you have had the opportunity to be a "New hire" at CO and they start hiring off of the streets will the off the street new hires be looked down on?
I refuse to be a scab and I refuse to take another pilots job for the simple reason of my dad would throw me into a volcano. I know its a ways away but I will not apply if it means taking another pilots job.
I have been wondering about this and I get asked this question alot by the people I fly with so any answers would be appreciated.

MasterOfPuppets, I'm one of the 844/2172/1437. You will NOT be looked down on or considered a scab by any of us.
If you look at all of the airlines, United has the highest percentage of retirees over the next decade. We have more than 3% of the combined list retiring every year for more than a decade. If you can get on the leading edge of hiring this cycle, I think that you will have a great career. Keep in mind that I've been labeled as an Eeyore on this website for being negative.
Best of luck to you.
