Come on Carl, we're talking about management here. So we (labor) are suppose to retreat to some sort of divisive tribal mentality because middle management jobs are being synergized? We're suppose to get all bent out of shape over musical chairs on the fourth floor?

It appears that you are looking for any reason to find division and make a mountain out of a mole hill over what premerger butt is sitting in what office chair on the fourth floor.

Get over it already.

Let's dump all your fleet captains and most all of your chief pilots and many of your alpa comittee guys and you just get over it with no problem dude.

But, the thing that bothers me about all of this is......best practices. There will be no one in a position of influence to to make our arguments. I guess I'll give up on checklist construction, flight planning, weight and balance or ACARS etc and just get what we get.

I'm not trying to be derisive, just feeling the beat down.

NOt to mention what happened to a certain individual on the 330 crew rest comittee. Any DAL -S guy want to explain that one. Total BS going on here. Weasily is the word Carl or you just get cut out of the loop if you do not tow the line of certain people.

This trivial shuffling of management pilots is "insulting" to you? Really?
You need to get out more.
Considering the size and speed of this merger, the team is actually functioning pretty well.
That 747 cockpit must be like some sort of 1980s red book echo chamber.
You guys are frozen in time. The rest of the airline has moved on.

This airline is moving backwards but you can't see it. We can. Hopefully it turns around. We want it to. Do You?? Frozen in time explains where DAL is with respect to a poorly run operation. Tired of sitting at the gate 30 to 40 minutes past departure because they can't figure out the W&B quick enough. Totally embarrasing dude.

I'm now at an MD88/90 base. Do I only receive 90 pay when I'm flying a 90 aircraft? Or perhaps, yes I know I'm dreaming, get paid 90 pay when flying the 88?

Thanks...

KC

Only when you fly that airplane.

My take is that the Red book guys are annoyed they aren't running the show anymore.

Yeap move on with head in the sand and ops as normal and miss out on a chance to really make this airline great. What ever happened to trying to take the best of both sides. Do you see your mind set here???? Do you want to stay the same or do you want to be possibly better?????

Furthermore, the Amish make incredible food, furniture, and homes (I live in Amish country). If you think they're backwards and ignorant, you've got some learning to do. They have managed to dodge paying taxes, don't waste money on useless crap, own some of the prettiest and fertile land in America. They might look like poor and stupid, but trust me, they've got more money than you could ever imagine.

Now please pass me the Chicken Corn Chowder ...

Who's picking on the Amish? :D Nobody is picking on the Amish! That's bad form, never pick on your competition in the field of operational technology.

As to Amish underboob... Super?

I will search, I will search under "Amish underboob" "Amish under boob" "Amish hot" "under boob" "under boob Amish"

I will post what I find shortly.

Exactly.

And hey... Deltanet just got rearranged again today! The technology is moving. Not sure where, but it's at least moving.

You know what would be cool, a page that says CQ? Everything you need and reference links. Even if its outside the plane-path-people-poopies-performance-paramount-pdiddy-puddle-pops-patsmear-

The jury is still out.

A) Maybe I should get into soccer. :eek: :)

B) This is the best I found, don't ask me how I got to this point and what I saw on the way. Just that I found Carl in the midst of a post of "hot Amish under boob". I think you guys can figure out how a journey from point A to point B landed on point H.

C) As to, FTB why can't you join in the conversation about red books, CLCPs, fleet managers, etc instead of posting stupid stuff

Answer: Because I'm at the kids table. That is where I belong.

Call the load people at DTW and ask for them to expedite? Get treated like the crack ***** down town. That's NEVER happened to me other than that at Delta. Plus, you talk about a poorly run operation? Again, take a look at Detroit brother. I've never had a problem at any other Delta base in the system. You got some facts? Bring it. Write a COR, report it to the CP, do something other then ***** on this forum.
