iPad Special Assignment
 

Anybody know if the emails/calls went out for the iPad job? I applied, but am not buddy buddy with anyone at TK.

You really need to learn the secret handshake. Go watch the movie "road trip". Learn that !:D

Unfortunately, it appears that the application process is just a dog and pony show. It's who you know that counts and nothing else. Just look around at the faces in the CPO and all the other Special Assignments.

I applied as well (with pretty low expectations since I'm not in the Old Boy network) but I think the application window just closed Friday before Christmas.

My guess is they will be figuring it out after New Years.

I know everyone's situation is different, but you guys signed-up to sit in ops every weekday for 3 months passing out iPads?

What's the draw?

The draw might be if you have to commute vs. do the iPad thing at home. Be paid 90 hrs to be at home every night instead of commute? Sign me up, I also applied, but have not heard anything back.

Unfortunately, I do know some people in the office. That'll probably work against me, worked hard for that reputation!

You mean go into the office everyday? Hard to believe that would somehow be considered a better deal, different strokes I suppose.

Perhaps someone has an ill or elderly parent who requires constant or significant care? Or maybe a new or special needs child? This isn't really all that hard to grasp. And if pulling a few shifts in the office (as opposed to boring holes in the sky and sleeping in hotels) is what it took to earn that time, I'd go for it. If this is a mysterious concept to you, well, congratulations. And may you never earn the gift of perspective. Till then, party on Wayne.

These old iPads really aren't up to the task. I hope they hurry up with disbursement.

You must have missed the meeting with the Bobs! Or left the cover sheets off of your TPS reports.

Let's see, you're jr and will get probably 90 hrs pay plus expenses for the special assignment. Now compare that to 73 hours and short call????

Nah it's a bad deal!
