Malter,

You need to like relax, maybe get hobby, go fish'n or somthing. The call will come, sooner or later, nothing you can do about it!

Enjoy your time off.
You are absolutely correct. Unfortunately, I live in the most god forsaken place in America and I'm going stir-crazy! All the lakes and rivers are completely dry; no fishin' here. You know you live in a lousy place when MEM seems like an oasis!

Yeah, I lived in Del Rio for three years. Didn't look back on the drive out either. Hope the call comes soon for you.

Six of us on May 30/31, only know of three of us who are in the pool. Hadn't heard from the other three, but they were sharp so I'm guessing they are in too.
 
I was orginally offered the May 13ish interview date, so I know there are a few more folks out there.
 
JDriver,
Here's a list compiled on another thread (FedEx Poolie Calls, Second Thread) a few months ago. May shed some light on your question. Jan poolies are feet dry.

Anyone new to the pool/board provide updates?

anyone hear when they will be starting interviews again. had the meet and great in june and just sitting tight.
 
Kim called today...had to update the golden flow and accept a 25 Sep class date. Interviewed Feb 9/10...there were three left in the pool as of this a.m. and I know she called two of us...she said she had today and tomorrow to make her calls...I'm assuming to finish up the 25 Sep date. Asked her how many in the class...20. Not sure how many she'd gotten to already...of course, now I think of that.

just added my 2 cents worth
 
quote - "March 14/15 - 11?(2) = 9 (Phaedrus)"

I interviewed on 14/15 March w/ Phaedrus; pool letter 17 Apr - only 11 made it to day 1, and 10 to day 2. Out of the 10 not sure how many got letters - also not sure who has been called up for -11 or Bus classes. Phaedrus' 9 may still be accurate?

xc - anxiously waiting but fortunately still have a paycheck coming in
 
FDX called today. Update drug test. Said I'll probably go to class in early-mid OCTOBER! Said 9/25 was full. Interviewed 2-14/15. And the wait goes on...

And when I do get a class date I'm posting it in this thread. The 4th thread. Because FOUR FDX poolie threads are enough!! I'm refusing to acknowledge that a Fifth thread was started.
 
Malter's in...............25 Sep Class. All 8/9 Feb guys have been called for this class. Still have to update drug test this week. Hope the rest of my poolie bros. get called quickly...........
 
Curious, is that 25SEP class FE only?

Congrats to the guys plucked recently from the pool! See you around campus...
 
Called today as well but just for the drug test. Sounded like mid to late October would be the class date. Keeping my fingers crossed. Interviewed Feb 22/23.
 
Way to go Malter, Congrats on the 25 Sep Class!!!!


The first beer is on me.

Here's a shot at an update

Now that Navyflyer, Malter and animal house have gotten the phone call, I thought I'd take a stab at updating some of the poolie info. Any new info I found is in red below. Yes, I've got too much time on my hands. If I missed anything, please feel free to update. I'm just trying to get an idea on what is still out there for us poolies. Hey, animal house, toss me navyflyer's floaties. I'll buy you a beer when I get out. NEED INFORMATION ON 11 AND 25 SEP CLASS SIZES, HELP!

I think 11 Sep has 25 and 25 Sep has 20, but I'm not sure. Check several pages back and you may find your answer.
Hope you guys get called soon. Lets keep the info flowing.

See ya in MEM!

Buddy of mine interviewed 28 Feb/1 Mar. Those dates have not been reflected in any of the postings I've seen. He said there were two groups, an AM and a PM group. He has not been good about keeping up with who and how many are in the pool. Maybe there are others out there who may know numbers for these days..........
 
animal - thanks for the floaties and the info. I looked through every post in the 4 poolie threads and didn't find the number in the 11/25 Sep classes. malter, that was what I figured. I didn't think we had all the interview dates captured. I was offered the 9th or 16th of May so there's probably another one missing. Rumors had the pool near 300 and I could only find the 210 so far. It looks like 40-50 a month are being trained in 2 classes for the 727. thanks for all the info....
 
This page has sure gotten quiet. No new interview dates or numbers to add to the list? No roumrs to add, no class sizes, class split......anything????

:confused:

Any words on these guys. Rumors about the interviews are everywhere, but who is getting them? Do you know when they went for M&G
