OK... but why the [deleted] did you choose to have the pilot depicted on all fours?! And below Schedulers? What is THAT supposed to imply?

Good night, all.

His raw is 160 because he's junior, and he's just been assigned his shortcall the last day before his X day's, obviously. You know, shortcalls being a totally different bucket and all.

What's a "short call"? Is that like a DCI thing?

Pilots flying red-eyes across the continent, cleaners cleaning the terminals, maintainers busy fixing the planes and deep-cleaning them, ACS washing jets and polishing windshields... all done with some holiday cheer and a smile.

But having everyone out dancing around with marshaling wands in a clear waste of time? Gah! That doesn't make Delta or any of our employees look good or Holiday spirit-ish, it's just a bogus dance video. Particularly when you consider that anyone who has flow Delta more than twice has certainly sat at the gate, staring out the window while listening to the Capt say "Folks, please remain in your seats with seat belts fastened, we're not quite at the gate yet... we're waiting for some marshallers to arrive so we can pull that last 100 feet into the gate." Meanwhile, out the window, three lazy sacks are trodding sluggishly across the pavement without an ounce of urgency amongst them...

Sorry, but that video punched every bad button I have as a Delta Customer, and a few of them as an employee lol.
New Bulliten to be out soon. Pilot participation in company sponsored flash mobs changed from "should" to "will".
