Does Delta still ask how many sick calls you've had in the last year during an interview? I was down with a bad flu for a couple weeks and had some emergency dental work that made me miss 4 trips since November. Would this many be a disqualifier?

Thanks

The type of sick usage you are talking about is exactly what sick leave is for - being sick. I don't think it would be a problem, but I'm not interviewing..

Baja.

Yeah that's the same one I was using, and got the authentication screen. I tried a few hours later and it all came up... so it appears that they are now available. Thanks for the response anyway.

It's one thing to try to improve the QOL, it's another to actively pursue a means to hoard it and demand others work in your place and say it's all fair cuz that's the way it use-ta-be.

Okay, pay use-ta-be higher and we use-ta-have a cap; bring that back and you can have seniority only based reserve. But that resolution needs to be lumped right in with the 7ER Domestic Only resolution...
