We only eat bleached fish (otherwise known as Lutefisk) if it's soaked in butter and accompanied by some Lefse. Perfect time of the year for everyone to take part in a Lutefisk/Lefse feed at their local church in the Northland.
And don't forget the tatter tot hotdish and jello salad, don't ya know....

Actually, I heard the opposite: That the NWA Call In Honest Policy is going to be re-instated.
I agree with the others. Lame attempt. If you are going to be devisive, go big, early, and say you don't like North guys because they wear funny shoes and eat bleached fish. This penny ante stuff marks you as a poser.

Ok ,first I never said that the commute policy was in jeopardy it was the sick policy. Second it has nothing to do with like or dislike anyone. As far as all of you saying that I am being divisive than i must be since I repeated what was said to me. I am not in any dept. to give you numbers or names, I never claimed to. Repeated what I heard, and yup that is all I did. If you like to think I made it up or changed what I was told then fine. Some of these dept. are small and saying who said it to gain your trust is silly. I couldn't care less if you think it is someone in the know or not. FWIW it is. Take it or leave it. And yes they specifically said it was mostly north guys not making commutes and calling in at the last minute. BTW.......I think that everyone of you wear funny shoes.

This pretty much falls into that category. This guys lame attempt at baiting people is bush league and his "rebuttal" is even lamer.
Imapilot, level up those phat intraweb skillz from teh bush leagues and come back with better game. Oh, and your "enter" key makes for great paragraphs...your pitiful run on blather marks you as a noob.

If its becoming too common, I'd look for management to react soon.
It drives them absolutely bonkers when commuters call in sick at the last minute.
Its completely obvious what really happened, but nearly impossible to prove.
I sure hope they don't take the easy way out and punish the whole pilot group.

Figured this was as good a place as any to post it, but the following link is from flyertalk.com where many of our most valuable and loyal Medallion pax hang out to chat, debate, complain, and praise all things DL. This thread is about a few multi-million milers/DL Plats who were invited to be gate agents in ATL for a few hours. As a long ago Gold Medallion, I used to know a few of them on-line. Their commentary is about what gate agents face on a daily basis is pretty neat.

I know that after just 2 minutes at the podium -- while I'm checking my schedule or Travelnet -- and answering stupid questions, I'm ready to throttle somebody.

No I have never heard of it. 
How do you handle reserves that do not want to go there? (I can hear the answer to this one.. but go ahead) Pay doesn't fix everything. And most of all, it doesn't mitigate the danger. It's not always about money.
