Another day with no letter and no call. Others from my interview group are being contacted so I know I went to the board.

Anyone else still waiting like me?

Is your last name in the middle of the alphabet by chance?

I think the mailman is just screwing with me. Its day 3 since the letters started arriving and I still haven't heard yea or nay. I interviewed July 11th and of the group of 18, there have been 8 yeas, 5 nays, and 4 no replies.

My gut instinct says the mailman will win tomorrow (no references called)...I should know by noon or so.

And my last name starts with a "B" so I don't buy the whole alphabet angle.

I heard that they split the new hire list by last name and assign the chief pilots with who to call. I was thinking that if the names of all the forgotten folks fell into K-P (since that's where I fall), then maybe it's just one chief pilot that's too busy to call. I'm really just thinking too much... I'm going to shut up and color until I get a yea or nay.

Score one for the mailman. I will add the letter to my collection! Although I hate being turned down, its sort of a relief. I have a class date with UAL next month and I'd hate to be second guessing my decision for the next 27 years if I made the right choice between the two.

I'll still be driving to work, so life is good!

Best of luck to everyone in the pool.
