Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
I don't think you could blow them out of there with C4. Where else can an Agent get away from the crowds and enjoy free Biscoff Cookies and Twix Bars while talking on their cell phones?
That's a little slice of Gatehouse heaven right there.
In all truthfulness, they do seem to enjoy the little respite provided by the jet pushing back. Time to admire work accomplished and time to regroup for the next one.

It seems that about once a month you need to yell something at them. Oh well......

My guess is they will watch, if they can, from a terminal window. My other guess is that it will only take a few late departures because Captains call them back for them to change this policy back. Lately, I've seen this happening more and more anyway.

I may have misunderstood this story when I heard it but did the gate agent watching the plane until it departs start because of the 727 no-flap crash in DFW?

When I started, you were lucky if you could get a glimpse of them as they made their way up the jetway, or as they raced through the concourse for the next donut.
I seem to recall many occurences when you needed them back because of a minor oversight, or because someone took a glance at me getting on, and needed back off. It took a looooong, long time to get agents back over to the aircraft, and help, because they were already into the next donut, and on the phone with Shaniqua, to talk about what Deondré had done to Jade. Stuff like that.
Ah, the good old days...
ACL:
Have you heard any good inside knowledge about our fleet modernization plan?
SD spoke about it in Atlanta many months ago but was unable to give any real specifics. They reconognize that we have too many fleet types.
Any ideas?

Now we have too many?
I think they need to be a little more consistent when they "reconognize" things like this. Adding and substracting leets cost a lot of money.
