No email here since the January one either. If there was an email sent out, I guess no one got it.

Nice flame bait Yardley...save it for the crew room board. Try helping out the new guys by NOT being a goob.

I agree, upgrades needed to happen months ago. We lost more captains just last month than then entire next upgrade class will amount to. Day by day the left seat becomes more unstaffed here.
As for flame bait, same thing I replied to Dirt Bag. I was asking a question. I did not at all state that the e-mail was a fact, I clearly was asking something and looking for answers. Nowhere in my post does it say that interviews have stopped for sure. Classes most likely have not and that's probably the false portion of what is actually going to occur: interviews done for a while, classes for those in the pool on schedule.

I merely repeated what I read elsewhere.
If you thought that was drama, then you're a drama queen. It was hardly dramatic, really.

Sorry you felt the wrath of everyone here, but your post did sound like a rumor, and unfortunately for many of us waiting in the pool, your statement was a very unexpected jolt of possible bad news, so thats why you got the reaction of everyone. I'm just glad it was pure speculation on your part and not fact!

Yeah, the other thing I just thought of is, if you are in the pool already then you would not have received this supposed e-mail because it would have been sent to people who have not even interviewed yet.
It may very well be true if that is the case.
Here's to hoping a lot of captain upgrades happen (needs to happen, actually) and hiring resumes on schedule.

Thanks for the clarification Yardley. I truly hope that what you heard was merely someone spreading BS. Yeah...we need people FAST!

yeah, I'd be shocked if the next upgrade isn't for 100 slots...remember we have 6 bases to staff now.
wait a minute...this is Expressjet....hehe

Still... not true Yardley, we are conducting interviews at the end of this month, the 27th and the 28th. Wherever you received that email information from I'd double check it and ask for some form of validity before spreading what is now, still, a unfounded RUMOR. Relax everyone... XJT is still hiring and still a good place to be.
Fly safe...
