Screw a t-shirt.

If I'm waiting that long, TSU better send an escort to my front door.

Just hope a priest doesn't show up at your door...

Odds say yes, unless by a miracle you can slide in before July 1st.

What is the longest on record here that someone has been in TSU?

To be honest, I don't mind spending the summer in Chicago instead of Georgia.

Reality check. I talked to the woman in TSU. I am waiting for SF/OAK and she said the next person in line to be hired for SF/OAK has a TSU date of January 2009. As of right now there are 6 months worth of people in TSU for SF/Oak. By August, September, October, or whenever they start hiring, could be 10 months of people waiting for SF/Oak. Even if they start hiring tomorrow, it will take months before they hit my TSU date for my port. If a person gets into TSU between now and when they begin to hire, there could be over 100 ahead of you in TSU for your port. If SF/OAK hired 3 a week for the next 3 months that's just about the time I would be called. But they are not hiring 3 a week for the next 3 months. FLETC can only handle so much at one time. If SF/Oak has people from Jan 09 in TSU, I am in April, and I know people who just got in for June, then when hiring does pick up, I still have three months of people ahead of me. My suggestion to anyone in TSU, find out how many months worth of people are ahead of you. Think about it, if you have month’s worth of people ahead of you in TSU, most likely you will not be hired in 2009.
78 days in TSU for SF/OAK. No way FLETC is happening in 2009 for me.
Early 2010 at best.
If someone can refute my logic then I beg of you because I want to wrong on this one. I just think it comes down to numbers. I am just talking about one GEO location, all the other ports have just as many waiting.

I'm not quite sure how accurate that information is considering the last person on this site (FreeAgent) who got the call for SFO/OAK had a TSU date of 2/20/09. Unless, of course, the next person in line the woman is talking about (with a TSU date of January) got pulled out of TSU while others got the call and then eventually reinserted. But you also have to take into account the number of those who have gotten the call since then who do not post on this forum.

I was using Freeagent as my last hire person for SF/Oak until I called. I could not figure out how a guy from Jan 09 had been passed, and then I realized he most likely got pulled, re tested, then put back in. I know one person in February, two in March, then me in April. What’s your TSU date?
She also said "we have a whole bunch of people a head of you in the month of March" She did say the last person hired for SF/Oak was from February. Since then, nobody. We can list January guy as a fluke. But my theory is, in order to get to me who has an April TSU date they have to hire anywhere from 15-20 people, maybe more or less. Hiring opens up in August, they have to get through those people before me. between August and December how many people will one port hire? I don't know the answer, but another question is how many people can FLETC train in that time? TSU can only hire as many as FLETC can train. By the time hiring starts back up, SF/Oak could easily have over 100 if it already doesn't. I honestly don't see how we get picked up in 2009. Maybe I get the call in the fall, report in early 2010. At this rate, every port in the country is going to have standing room only in TSU.

I honestly believe freeagent was the last guy hired for SF/Oak
