I have a good friend who is in the DEC. class. The 75/76 slots are for the SDFZ.

FWIW.

For those in the know:

Does UPS have some sort of "review board" to select new-hires or the ones conducting the interview have the final say?

Just curious.

Thanks.

THanks for the update, Dog. I notice your seniority list is shrinking (was at 2850-now back to 2800) on APC's UPS page. Is this a typo?

Maybe not, but only temporary. Lots of the "Fleet Captains' retiring after the ratification. I saw the list for January, 20 plus folks out the door. UPS hiring now to catch up and for the MD's and 744's coming next year.
