99 Hires FYI - Here Comes Recall Letter #3

[Phoenix]

Keep in mind that somebody, somewhere is going to have to be awarded those 190 left seats.

190 left seats?

They are trying to fill the right seat of 320s, 737, 767, and even 330s.

I heard today that the "take it or leave it" letters have made it all the way back to August 99.

Getting really close.

Ok. Maybe i'm looking in the wrong places. I'm not terribly familiar with New Hampshire.

We paid $88/square foot here in Arkansas for a new construction. Doesn't look like I can come anywhere near that in southern New Hampshire. But if anyone can recommend a town or neighborhood to look at, i'm sure open to it!

I'm a mechanic working for DL in BOS. I moved up here a year ago from ATL. Yes, housing is very pricy in Eastern Ma. and Southern NH. I settled in Peabody, MA. The bottom end of the livable single family market is about $300K. For that I ended up with a four bedroom Cape 1100Sqft, on about a 1/4 acre. I'm less than a mile from the commuter rail and about 6 miles from the Logan Express bus. Taxes and utlities in Peabody are about the lowest in Ea MA.

We also thought about NH. Some of the guys I work with live in Derry or Nasuha. It used to be a lot cheaper. The housing prices are almost the same as MA and the property taxes are much higher. To see houses in the $250k range we were looking at Manchester. It's a nice city. My Mom has lived there for 20 years, but with both of us commuting to BOS it wasn't much savings.
