Swa hiring 140 pilots

[slaquer5]

This just emailed to me

We are preparing to resume Pilot interviews. We anticipate hiring an additional 140 Pilots with interviews beginning in November! These Pilots will be trained during the first quarter of next year to position us for the anticipated adjustment to future schedules.

Good luck

Wait. Isn't there some other training that needs to get done?

 

[GoodTimes]

Good news for everyone.

Maybe that's why I haven't been able to update for the past few days......

They are assuming a "yes" vote from both sides. These pilots are to help out with the transition training. Still, very good news to SWA and AAI pilots. There will be more for hired for summer time. And, then even more hired late in 2012 for retirements coming up in a little more than a year.

Whys it bad? You guys need get off this ********************. 717 are being transfered over just as the 737. I'm sick of the whining at our pilot group. Get over it and let's move forward.

Well if you are on the b scale until 2015 it sucks when a new hire makes more.

These are also sim slots that could be used to get 717 guys over to the 737.

I was over it one AIP ago. Liked the first one. ALPA saved me from myself.

Not really trying to do that; just yanking his chain a little. Hey, if you see him, remind him that he owes me $100. Thanks!

Ok, 717 guys don't go over Untill to 2013. So how does that hurt 717 guy? You should pissed at magnificent 7, who brought all this sh!t on us.

New hire at SWA gets a 737 slot. In 2014 he is making 101ish an hour. In 2014 our 717 guys will make a lot less. Get it? In 2015 it's all under the bridge.

I'm mad at the mag seven and all our pilots egging them on. You know the guys who "thought it would go straight to mediation" or RM spewing BS until he hit Dallas then realized he wasn't that smart.

It would almost be worth a NO to see those guys hit the street. The marriages fail, kids yanked from private school, the reality of the job market... Excited for it to be over.
