True. That should be fun to watch.

That is indeed a challenge, I'll attest to that.

I don't think Delta would fire someone for making posts on APC that are meaningless.

Maybe. Maybe not. And its really, at this point, not about firing but about hiring. And the social media guidance is pretty specific. If I was wanting to flow up to the mainline, I'd use a little more discretion.

It's a great company. Not everybody is qualified.

I think T was referring more to a newb going out on the line excessively bad mouthing the company and complaining.

Not sure if that would get someone canned or not, but it sure doesn't help being on probation.

For a "lawyer" you are pretty dense sometimes.

First, I said the AA 1113(c) would get denied the first time and then approved the second time, you told me I was nuts, what happened? While the judge will abrogate the scope contract as well, that will be overturned by another court. If it's not however, then our union days are basically over.

Second, there is a big difference between slandering the company on personal social media and saying the delta pilots are this and that for voting in a TA on a public anonymous forum.

I think they could make a case, based on his posting history, to think otherwise. Just a thought. Discretion, discretion.....

Ya'll are really reaching tonight... His posting history doesn't slander the airline.

I've known him for a long time, too. He's a well spoken and mannered pilot. Not to mention his posts on the TA were some of the best written.
