Default Latest management message

Our CEO yesterday said that the airline is staffed properly for the summer and that the pilot picketing events are “nothing substantive “. Please remember this as you wear your backpacks this summer and please don’t furrow your brows in front of customers. I sure hope our management isn’t being kept up at night.

What a relief! Now I won’t feel any pressure to fly on my off days.

[color=#414141]So does this mean Ed thinks that we will give in, AGAIN? I know that we have just been through some of the most challenging economic times in Delta's history; however, the DC carriers can't even staff their airlines with pilots to provide service to our secondary cities. I've heard there is a secret agreement with the DCs that we will limit the number of pilots we hire from them. We are on the cusp of record profits and serious pricing power. The time is now, brothers and sisters, to demand an industry-leading contract that hasn't been seen in decades. This public service announcement was powered by Lite Beer by Miller.

Words to live by: If it flys, floats, or ******s- rent it, don’t buy it.

Was that the same interview where he said 12-18 months to fix pilot staffing?

I’m quite sure it was purely sarcasm. Or being facetious. Fascism?

I like the day drinking energy. Definitely a force to reckon with.

I'm pretty sure they were implying something for the pilot group there. I'm no expert. Not all communication is direct in every circumstance, in my experience.

Remember, sexist attitudes aren’t real anymore.
