I'm assuming that you mean automatic emails were accidentally generated and sent and not that people were actually fired?

So are the rumors true....... (wait bad start). What are you hearing that compass will be flying out of LGA. Seems every delta regional is saying they will be flying flying out of LGA and closing a base or moving airplanes to LGA etc, etc. Whats the word?

Dead on! I agree 100%

This is word from management! They put out a newsletter saying LGA flying was a pretty sure thing. Then 2 days later the president said in a phone message, that he wished we wouldnt have written the letter because things keep changing on a daily basis with delta. Anyone with past DCI experience knows thats true.

That was the last we have heard. Its been over a month.

Now for the rumor part. I have heard from multiple people no higher than base managers (read glorified secrataries), and maintance guys, that the LGA base will be opening in June and the MEM base closing at the same time. I have heard 15-23 airplanes.(We only have 36). I have heard MSP will also be cut in half.

All rumors of course, but that is what you asked for.

There's a new posting on will fly for food for compass F/Os. Is this something new or are they just posting an old listing?

It's old WFF just put up one for AWAC too which is old. Compass, however has shut their application process for pilots, you can't apply if you haven't already. They probably were so flooded it crashed the system! I talked to someone in HR about 2 months ago and she said they have about 40 NEW apps each day! It's bad I would assume AWAC is the same way. Will this ever end!!!??
