Are you losing sleep over this? Do you need a referral to a specialist? Perhaps talk to one of the ALPA pro stan people? CPO?

As Joe Biden would say…come on man!
I am glad you are here. You bring a different perspective and at times a reality check.

No way! Seriously!? Please post a reference or is it on the Deltanet?

This weekend is a sh*t show.

Still at work till Tuesday!

Be safe out there! Reroutes for all my friends!

This is rather embarrassing. Random family members asking me what's going on here. Maybe honesty is asking too much from our "leadership" team.

The propaganda machine on Virginia Avenue makes its own story lines up and presents them as facts. The literal definition of fake news. You can’t blame air traffic control and weather when every airline out there is flying in the same National ATC system and dealing with the same weather systems as Delta.

Rules of the road is a one way street. We have to abide by them. They don’t apparently. It is absolutely pathetic. We had a pax today who just took a 6 day vacation and their bag never showed up. Then their flight home tomorrow cancelled.

Do better Delduh.

Rumor of record number of FAs called out? Can anyone substantiate or refute?

Partially true. Crazy number of rerouted, flown into days off, high schedule values, and much lower schedule flexibility…and everyone has gotten FMLA to use whenever they don’t want to come in and work.

You can't be held accountable for a status quo violation if you don't have a union!



(You just get fired, but I don't think big D has the resources for that right now...)

I also enjoy your posts. You provide a valuable perspective.

And yeah, I buy into the “Delta family” schtick. I find it makes this airline the best place to work, as we all take care of each other.

Any perspective on FAs complaining that boarding pay is too low, as the boarding process is the toughest part of the job? I heard two FAs conversing that boarding pay should be full or more pay rate, and anything less would actually encourage AFA ratification.
