BTW, LOA returns are not considered new hires…..

That's why I said a NEW HIRE class, not a returning LOA class. NEW HIRE class today, followed by another in 2 weeks, and so on and so on.

A buddy of mine coming off LOA was part of a "new hire" class. You have no way of knowing every person in that class was actually new.

Personally I can't wait to sit out a shrinking airline with my relative seniority never increasing. Commuting out the night before for my uncommutable trips. PBS removing my ability to get more than 4 days of work off for a 6 day vacation block. 5 day trips, and being treated like a child as we always have at Eagle.

This company is a sinking ship and a really awful place to work. Time for all you Eagle cheerleaders to quit defending it.

Eagle to hire 600+ in 2013!

Honest question Bzzt. As of right now what makes Eagle such an awful place to work? I'm not asking for your crystal ball or whatever has been said may or may not happen...right now only what is so terrible in your opinion.

PBS will remove DTS so you're only going to remove 1 trip per vacation block. The only thing that's a guess is the future of the airline, all I can say is at this moment we have no fleet plan and my relative seniority hasn't changed in over a year.

Sooner I 100% agree with you. I'm working on a second degree online and hopefully eagle will last the 3 years it's going to take me to finish.

Other than being stuck in a dead end job in a dying career and realizing it, I don't know if we have anything else. Seems like a level headed dude though.
