The proper way to pimp your ride...

you can swap golden days?

pretty sure you can swap golden days, but when you do, they just turn into x days. Its been awhile, but I think I am right.

Endless shrinking to profitability while competitors and OAL "partners" grow definately creates the need for a morale booster. What was the projection by an alphabet group that shall remain nameless on post TA hiring needs in the next 4-5 years? Wasn't it like over 3000? With at least the first year of that, and possibly the second, posting goose eggs, that means at least 1000 per year after that, amirite?

It was nice to hear at the time though, I'll grant that much.

I don't know that "swap" is the correct word, "move" might be better and then only if the move meets the criteria. You are correct that when a golden day is moved it becomes a regular X day.

I just finished quarterly cq, so I won't quote/readback your semantically correct post simply to continue my poor engrish vagueness. I'll just say roger and bow to the correctness of Denny Crane.:D I need a cognac.

ask mr crane about his Dingle Dangle

wait. .. doing ask him

First off - you don't seem happy with Delta. You seem disenfranchised. I'm sure the same level of disgust with their employer led SWA to be the highest paid 737 pilots in the country. Please, for all our sake, continue spreading your displeasure.

I've worked under the industry's most popular contract in terms of "lowering the bar" for the Regional industry. My own personal credentials wouldn't impress you - on an anonymous web board anyway, where credibility is determined solely by corroboration and like minded-ness. Please enlighten me as to how you came across your credentials to become a successful Delta candidate. Did your previous tenure involve disobeying orders? Didn't think so. Your level of entitlement leads me to believe you served in a peacetime military and flew training sorties with fake bombs on VFR days with little collateral risk besides your own ego. You probably also had an assortment of squadron mates to recommend you for the job. Historical performance in training from your generation has since led to the dissolution of nearly all past hiring practices. If that doesn't tell you something, I'm not surprised.

Looks to me like Sgt. Meyer was just doing his job. Your job today is described in our manual system and the PWA, as well as the myriad of Delta policy manuals - one of which states the posting of sensitive company information in a public forum or in "social media" is prohibited. I honestly doubt you'll be awarded any more medals though. Unless you go back to serve your country again. I'm sure you're very brave, and a great shot.

As a result of my "industry experience" I clearly understand what our PWA is, what it was, what it was both sides pre-merger, and what it will be. I can see the five year plan for this airline, the internal and external pressures we face as a pilot group, the economic factors that dictate our compensation, and what the true globalization of our industry means for us both now, and over the duration of our careers. In effect, granted that I'm near positive you're far senior to me, my career expectations are tempered by the realities of the world not present when you were a new hire. No airline career is easy. But I'm sure glad your life has been so challenge free. I instead prefer my own reality - not the one that the vocal minority has created out of greed and an incomplete view of our industry.

Anything else you'd like to add?
