If your in the pool at FedEx without apps in at delta, American, united, you need to get busy.

I heard from a guy in the pool that talked to John r within the last 2weeks that he (John r) is being told that its at least a year before classes start.

So we are so overstaffed, that they put out a memo telling mil guys not to take leave during peak. Go figure.

We're so overstaffed they are buying back 757 vacations (I "think" that means Advance Volunteer is available also?).

Maybe the staffing department didn't get the hint from the crewforce that pibs is a non starter and they're still trying to staff for it.

I'm reading conflicting info, which is it:

Hiring Summer '14?

Or

None until 2015, beyond?

Or

It's anyone's guess?

It sounds like some equipment is staffed thin...
