    Well I had the phone interview yesterday, and I finished online application. It sounds like it had its up and downs. What are my chances of being moved to full time work?

    ive worked for delta gse. let me tell yah they have a high turn around. they get 50-100+ new ramp workers a week. when i went for my interview there was 3 people for gse. for ramp every bit of 75 people. the background test is hard for a lot of them to pass. so they work for a week then there shit comes back and they are fired. a lot of them wash out because of the weather when its cold out there its fucking cold and when its 100 outside on the ramp well over 110. ramp get no respect. they i just u can say are at the bottom. an that sux because they are the base of everything. they are under paid dont get enough hours and have to work in really really fucked up conditions. if u think your going to be able to join just for the buddy passes. good luck you will find out they arent worth it the first time u go to use them.

    Agreed. I work in the aviation industry and it's pretty much true. A similar job getting the same pay for less work would be a lineman at a smaller company at a small airport. ie: Georgia jet landmark aviation. Fuel planes chock them help with baggage. Other than that you get paid to sit arround and shoot the shit. Your in an office or hanger out of the weather. Some places offer full benefits. You get more hours. And you get the same pay if not more. If I remember correctly when landmark out of lzu was hiring linemen the pay was 15.75 an hour plus full benefits.

    Can you give me any information on the job you're talking about? I live in Winder but I drive to Gwinnett all the time so distance is no biggie.

    Ingles blows, man. I admit it's the easiest job I've ever had but it's really not worth it after 2 years. Hope you get out soon enough lol.
