No longer a rumor - United will hire..

hell even 905% of IND rampers and gate agents are pathetic.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. Even when I used to fly turns out of PHL, I'd say no more than 603% of them had bad attitudes.

I have to disagree with you there Booker, I routinely see bad attitudes in the 658-732% range in PHL.

Maybe that's the difference between a "WAG" and a "SWAG"!

The problem with hiring in the 90's was not who they were hiring, it was who they were turning down. In 96 they interviewed 4500 pilots to hire 500 (almost all who were white males by the way). They turned down 4000 qualified pilots most of whom would have been great employees. I used to tell my friends who had interviews that it was kind of like lets make a deal, they are conducting multiple interviews at a time and if you walk in the right room it is yours to screw up. If you walk in the wrong room there is pretty much nothing you can do to get the job. It was a screwed up way to hire pilots but they did not end up with bad pilots/employees they just pissed off a whole sh##load of good pilots that interviewed for no reason.

Sounds like SWA today...

Ah "Yonited" bashing... I'm gettin' a little nostalgic here! This post reminds me of the good old days on FI.com! Round and round we go...

If you can't get enough, go back in time!

I know. Just thought I'd add some levity amid the HR smack.
