its not over 'til its over
i have a letter from the AOA. it says that due to the recruitment ban thou shalt not join. it then advises to wait 2-3 months (management will fold)...finally they advise that december will be a good joining date...... it will definitely be over by then right?
the letter is dated 26 Aug 2001!
if i had joined as suggested by the assistant to the general secretary....... he would now be blacklisting me.
finally some answers: 235 is the recruitment target (25 FOs, 175 SOs and 35 Cadets)
all courses until 1 jan 03 are full. interviews are well underway to fill next yrs courses. (12 FOs and 125 SOs)
........... the info above is obtained from CX press releases (and by using a calculator!)
**** to any potential new joiners - keep every bit of correspondance that IFALPA and the AOA send you. make notes after every telephone call you have with them or your union rep. KEEP INFORMED.
