Almost all of the bids are out. Only exception was the MSP 755. Looks like I hosed myself again trying something new in PBS. How does it go fool me once shame on you, twice shame on me!

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Still no word yet on the ATL88s. I think we are the largest section or close to it.

Still missing ATL 88B, DTW DC9B, CVG 73NB, MEM 320B in addition to aforementioned MSP 755B, I guess I needed more coffee before the earlier post. Sorry

PM me NYC blows but turns out long term, CVG would have been worse.

You are probably right, but that is not what they are saying.
The first step in being more commuter friendly would be to adopt the FNWA Call in Honest Policy and put it in the contract. Until I see that it's all Bread and Circuses.

I just tried to get my paycheck info, and was unable to with either Firefox or IE6. I called the CPSC, and they were able to pull it up and email it to me. They were very helpful. 1-800-MYDELTA was a massive waste of time.

I'm pushing for a commuter policy that keeps senior guys from commuting into to my base but makes it very easy for me to commute in the event I'm displaced. I view commuting as a choice.......unless it affects me. Seriously though, after this screw job, a lot more of this company will be commuters. If they don't modify the commute policy I'm sure we'll earn it the way the fNW guys did.
