your category is out of reserves & there are several rotations available on that day. Instead of green slips going out the rotations are pulled from open time & assigned to a different base deadheading the guys on the first & last legs of the trip.
Yes.......

My impression from the LCP meetings... both last fall and this spring... is that until ALK stops dancing with every boy at the party, we are not interested in doing business with them. They had some pretty sweet deals that they are turning their back on, but it's their decision to make. I don't THINK a merger is a practical solution.. at least not at this time because of the complexity of unwinding all their other endeavors. That is just my opinion however...

You know what this says to me? It says he is more interested in telling people what he does, at a cocktail party, than actually running an airline, or fixing the problems.

Perhaps that's why he was let go?

Doesn't he remind you of a former exec... Fred?

Delta has gone to great lengths to educate and provide meds to its employes. You might want to consider deleting such an irresponsible statement.

For this post, I nominate you for tool of the day.
37 people in Georgia alone have died from the flu this winter. I admit "not a big deal" was a poor choice of words when it is a big deal, but what I was trying to strike at is, avoiding Africa because of malaria related deaths akin to Foreigners avoiding the US because of Flu related deaths.

The worst thing an exec. can do, is fat mouth a former employer. Unless, of course this is your last bestes' job forever.
