As im making the turn off I think to my self I could have just cost DL more then my entire crew base pays to use travelnet.
The DCI shuffle has worn hard on me and I just dont give a **** anymore.
I have absolutly no incentive other then the enviroment to taxi with one engine, shut down the apu inflight or on the 4 hour sit, use reduced thrust TO ect.. why should I. We as pilots have a huge oppertunity to show the MAN we can save them more money then they can imagine if they pay us well and keep us happy. end of rant
