COA Hiring

[deltabobo]

Props:

I interviewed with CO on Wednesday and I received the email last night from CR saying thanks but no thanks.

I agreed with the low morale. I was told by one of the chiefs there and they're expected half to walk out come '12 and the move to ORD. We'll see...

Geez I wonder what kind of people they are looking for. I know of another 2 guys who interviewed last week and got the thanks but no thanks letter today and they are both really sharp guys.

I guess you just never know. Better luck next time to you guys.

Also, I cant really blame the guys for the low morale. These guys are being forced to displace from a low tax, low stress, low cost of living, high economic and decent QOL city to everything that is opposite of Houston with Chicago.

Hired 3 load planners 15 plus years and 5 regional guys, 3 express (one is a family member in the SOCC), maybe there was one Skywest and Pinnacle.

Moral is low but the comment by the chief that half of disp will bail is way over the top.

Have to keep in mind United north has to move from Elk Grove to downtown as well. There is no shortage of moaning up there, their commute could easily double.

Chicago issue aside, I am actually looking forward to people bailing, so i can move faster to the top. If things are positive, can easily hire more in double digits to the bottom as seniors bail when this thing shakes, and that's is a good thing.

$3900 gross/month + Chicago = fail! I think I will stay here for awhile. The majors in the US don't seem hungry enough yet. There are only so many experienced, active dispatchers out there willing to pull up stakes and relocate. Combine that with the ones leaving the regionals for greener pastures and I see better times ahead.

...and, he sometimes looks like Wolverine when he doesn't shave for a couple of days.

Or at least something that sounds like Wolverine.... And being a Lakers fan wont help him much in the home of the ROCKETS!

So not all hope is lost yet! I have an employee referral as well, so fingers crossed. Good luck!
