Now this is where it gets interesting..... She was contacted by her CP and asked/advised to remain on the ER since Delta had invested "all the money and time" getting her qualified! That seems pretty low to have a CP lean on someone because they were displaced, qualified on a different aircraft but now wish to return to displaced position.
Anyone heard of this happening before?
So when DAL furloughed me and over 1100 other guys and gals (while ASA and COMAIR were hiring as quick as they could) I guess all we had to do was say "Gee I wouldn't mind being furloughed but I invested a lot of time and money in my career - so I would prefer to remain employed."
What a joke - I hope she laughed her ass off!
Oh wait, thats right - we are supposed to forget that DAL screwed us and be one happy family now.
