TEN,

I don't know about it now, however my Delta interview in 2000 was the most hostile of any I had attended. I had an HR guy, the hostile one, and a retired Capt, the one that kept falling asleep. The HR guy told me months later that he always picked one guy a day to see if he could get under his skin. He didn't know why he picked me but he thought my answers were interesting.
