Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

Looks like the mad dog for me.

If the RJ jumpseater still had not boarded, then he probably should have stepped aside. However, you weren't there 15 prior as the rule says and the agent has to start wrapping things up (especially now with the big latency push).
Either way, you're right. It is your right to not help out a fellow pilot, but would you appreciate the assistance if it were the other way around? Have you ever commuted?
I commuted for 8 years, and finally moved to base. Although it doesn't come up very often for me anymore, I would still do whatever necessary - to include sitting backwards in an FA jumpseat for 5 hours - to get another pilot on the airplane (DCI or otherwise). Maybe that's just me and the majority of your Delta pilot co-workers.
Doing the right thing, even when you don't have to, is a sign of good character. I'd venture to say that most of us feel that way. Join the team won't you?

I'm surprised at how senior the 717B went. I am fairly low on the 88. I expected to move backwards. I think I might have actually moved up the list in my category. Very unexpected.
Holy moley 717 went senior... shiny new jets!
Looks like a large # of junior 88 ATL B's went to the 717, the company is loving that.
Hey, for the first time I haven't been displaced! Amazing!
I'll have maybe 30 folks below me for a change. I may be able to finally hold a line on ATL88B.
