Yikes I was hoping that wasn't the case. It will be a long wait till the fall comes to hope for another chance.

Wow, next fall, eh?

Guess I can close my airlineapps account, or not renew it actually.

Overheard outside the interview room:

HR: What do you consider your biggest weakness?

Pilot Applicant: Honesty.

HR: Really? We think honest is a very positive trait at United.

Pilot Applicant: I don't care what you think.

Thanks!
A class of 12 737's every week. 6 to IAH 6 EWR. Every other week they add 4-6 756 to EWR. One week it's 12 the next it's 16-18.

It is at that, but HR asks some pretty stupid questions and honesty is not what they want. They want the party line--"Yes, I'd love to go to Guam!" and "Of course you're much better than Delta and Southwest!"

Good luck to all!

Actually, I'd love to go to Guam! You know how good Guamanian food is?

Wait! Nevermind, Guam is inside North Korea's range!
Keep me far away from Kim Jong Un's minions!

Not sure I completely understand your message but yes, I do have plan B, and plan C, and plan D. I assume you are one of the furloughs who came back. I know a lot of them.
