I'm a June CJO. Still nothing for the last class in Feb. We were originally hoping for October. Hope for the best.....

I wouldn't call them flow ups. They interviewed just like you and I can promise they have been swimming in the pool with their cjo for much longer.

The way I read Badger's spreadsheet, 5 Aug will be in the 4/4 class at the earliest. If you look at the red numbers on the top, that's where you compare your number in the pool to the expected class date. Looks like I don't make the 3/24 class cut. Maybe I'm reading it wrong though.

Does anyone know how accurate badger's class dates are? They didn't get 3 January classes... Maybe they put 4 classes in March?

I would say +/- 2 weeks. It's a huge lifeline compared to the minimal info from the company......not that I'm complaining

His spreadsheet is only as accurate as the info given to him. He warns you not to buy the 69' yacht based off of it, but it definitely has helped collect all the data and organize it to give the best glance into a timeline that we can get. It seems to be spot on most of the time from what I hear.

WTH!?! Who's questioning Badger?? I simply asked, does anyone know if the the DATES on his speadsheet are correct for March....

Isn't it plausible that they start a class on the 29th and NOT wait until the 7th?

Communication is now a known sticking point between selection (interview) and training (indoc). Bottom line is there was a void as most of us have experienced between the two where little or no information flows and it's because they hate having a pool and didn't expect it. That is something they are working on in Atl, and was initially addressed with that update email from mr Kraby about class placement a few weeks ago. In addition, all the words about increasing class #'s etc in the coming months are true. Again, the effort is relentless there to drain the pool and get back to normal timeline. Keep your heads up its well worth the wait, but I know how tough the wait can be. Find another job in your local town and apply with the intention of staying forever, at least tell them that. Then, the lovely surprise email invite to come to ATL and be a delta pilot will come in no time. Then decide if you wanna sling lumber at Home Depot or go to class.

The numbers in Badger's most recent spreadsheet already relfect the first two Feb classes being filled. It's looking like the 22 Feb class will dip into the first few July 1st CJOs...maybe more depending on who has left the pool.
