Most are good people, but it shouldn't take 5 extra sims and 3 rounds of IOE to get someone through training.

It's unfortunate they are taking up almost all of the non-military newhire spots. Most flows come pre-loaded with entitlement issues or negativity towards the company from day 1.
Does anyone else find it ironic that they guy who is questioning the professionalism of FT pilots has chosen to identify himself ( dirty sanchez ) by a gross sexual act involve ass play and smearing poop on one's face? Seems to me, he is a case example of the vetting process not working.

Looks like I touched a nerve! You a Piedmonster? OTS from a regional for me. Merit based.

Glad you like the username. I've had it since way before LUS picked my incredible resume from the stack.

Based on my 11 July class date, I'd guess they're sticking with the every other week model.

How do you correlate a funny anonymous name to professionalism in the cockpit? Who cares. It's a funny name

No, I just have a problem with bullies. Keep making yourself feel better though, it's actually kind of entertaining.

[QUOTE=EasyScotch;2354728]Have a CJO in hand from a late March interview, but no class date and no communication from American since conducting the background checks/fingerprinting/drug tests.

United CJO in early March, looking at November class date....hopefully! Basically, things could be worse.
