anewunion how is class. Are you still not willing to help us little guys out with a little system help?

 

[GogglesPisano]

Seniorty is based off of the last 4 of your social, with lowest being the most senior. L.

I thought the higher the number the more senior you were.

 

[General Lee]

I thought the higher the number the more senior you were.

Just like United, a 0134 number would be senior to a 9756 number. I wish it was like that when I got hired way back when---I would have 30 more people behind me.....


Bye Bye--General Lee

This is what the contract says.....

2. Seniority numbers will be assigned to individuals on the first day of their new-hire training in the following order:
a. Company transferees will be assigned the lowest seniority numbers within the class,
in order of their most recent date of employment with the Company, then
b. New-hires will be assigned seniority numbers on the basis of the last four digits of each individual’s social security number. Individuals with the higher numbers will be assigned the lowest seniority numbers.​

Military guys can get in with that. That is why the mins are there. Do it now. Beat all of your buddies that will be coming out of the military in the next 18-24 months. All they can say is no.

If you meet these minimum qualifications and you were military trained, you would not be wasting your time by applying. Good Luck.

I don't thing going to boot camp qualifies as military. Assuming this, how would you have 1100 turbine and no PIC in the military?

Curious, why in the next 18-24 months?
