Fwiw, most of the talk I hear around campus is that the Delta pilots don't like this program either. Lots of friends from other airlines, the military, etc having to fight for limited OTS slots because of this.
I just returned from a week of training, and some of the comments from upper mgmt. about the flows/ssps is interesting. To be fair, some interesting comments about a newhire from the military too. All in all positive comments, but there has been some training issues and some attitude issues.
Maybe you will get your wish, and the ssp will get terminated.
Don't read anything into the post then what it is, just humor. (At least I thought.) If I was younger maybe I would try the SSP but I choose not to spend my remaining years at the bottom. To be fair maybe there would not be attitude issues if DAL was fair and did not misuse bankruptcy laws to cheat employees and really act with honesty and integrity as they like to advertise. My beef is not so much with any pilot but with managements treatment of its employees. Hopefully we can find more common ground to fight the good fight rather then against fellow pilots.
Sincere congratulations to you getting hired on and good luck with your career ahead!
