Yea I hear ya man, the suspense can drive you nuts. I've been working on getting the job since last May, slaved away as an unpaid intern here for 4 months. Believe me the life of an intern ain't easy, especially living out of a hotel room in a city where you know absoluely no one. Make the best of it, that's all you can do. After that, I busted *** to get to 100 multi so I could interview. Could have gone to a bottom feeder regional with practically no multi time but I figured I'd hold out for XJT. Between maintenance issues, wx, and scheduling nightmares it took me 3 months to knock that out, studying for the interview the whole time.

As much as I really do want to be here, I don't think I can wait till June, basically if this job falls through that amounts to 7 months of work for nothing since I'd probably end up at a bottom feeder anyway. Yea I know, welcome to the airline world...

I'm not tryin' to complain. I realize most of the other poolies have probably had similar stuff to go through to get here, some probably worse. If this rumor is true I just wish they'd tell us so we can move on.
