Anyone else feel like the level of incompetence at almost all Delta Depts is at an all time high. From scheduling, to tracking, ramps, and even the dept that handles late arriving aircraft and managing swaps. It seems to me like we have incompetent people working everywhere at Delta now and passengers are paying the price.

That is what happens when you pay talented and experienced employees to leave. We've had tens of thousands of years worth of experience walk out the doors in the last 18 months. For those of us remaining I'd venture the GAS (give a s...) factor is lower than it has been in over a decade. Do you care more or less about your job performance than you did two years ago? Multiply that answer by 70,000 employees.

In my neck of the world we lost a lot of really smart people. And the ones who stayed seem to indicate that yeah it was an IQ test.

I can no longer recall the exact details of the non cons early retirement deal. But I do remember thinking it was an IQ test--if you were anywhere near retirement age and had any math ability it would be really hard to justify not taking it.

Yeah my comment was overly unkind. Little frustration dealing with some folks who didn't retire, making me miss the competence of those who did.
Totally get your point regarding smart motivated people. Snarkiness aside, for the folks near retirment age, it would have been extremeely hard to find a logical reason to not take the deal.
