I think you'd be surprised, and I wasn't specifically talking about your post. Unfortunately, we're all NOT "big boys..." If you ever do talk to the CPO, they'll tell you that 95% of their problems are created by about 5% (or less) of the group. Good fortune on your part for not needed them after such a long career. Between a death in the family while on the road and random MLOA stuff, I've needed them a few times in my short career.

Yeah, been here, I know the what they do. Thanks, it's also an axiom that when you retire, they don't know you name. I was in NYC for 20 years, the CPO wasn't particularly helpful or friendly in those days. Other than picking up my ID every 5 years, I haven't needed to step in the office. I'm a 95%er. Maybe you can apply for a job there. You seem helpful.

I already talked to them about that. Turns out they expect you to actually show up to work like more than 6 or 7 days a month, and that's just right out. Also, contrary to how it appears, I'm way less helpful than I look. :D

I actually instructed at Delta and LCAed here. And have done a special project that every captain attends. I did things that I believed help the line pilot. Very small contribution to be sure. And it was a privilege to work with line pilots. I was being a little obtuse, and I apologize to you.

Masks now required for employees when in view of customers through the end of the year. Also limited to solid black only. The company has ones that will be provided. Posted on Deltanet.

I don't take myself or anything on here too seriously. I certainly did not intend to patronize and/or belittle you, and I apologize if it came off that way. Thank you for your efforts for the pilots at Delta.
