To be fair. I’ve had literally my own FAs from my own crew do this to me. “Oh I didn’t know you guys were overnighting”. Yeah, sure you didn’t.
She was off the plane and took off before we could even get the plane secured.
Some people are just think for their selfers only.
It’s not a delta thing, but a personal thing. And at the end of the day, like other have said, we are the bag carriers to mainline. It really isn’t personal, those folks are usually gone before I get off the plane on my commutes sitting in comfort.
