Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

I know A LOT of great FAs on the north side. Pleas PM me your employee number so I never have to fly with YOU

Typical..........If you don't like it QUIT. Bit me:mad:

Not quite what he said, and taken out of context, but nice try. And since it is an up or down vote on representation, I don't think they have much of a choice now that the choice has been made.

GS,

How is it taken out of context? I quoted the entire post.

I really get tired to the NWA haters. You aren't one, so now I'm really confused.

PS. If you look, I pulled my post now that my blood pressure dropped a bit.

All kidding aside, I'm thinking this is going to be an interesting transition. It's not unrealistic to conclude they're going to be trying to find some sort of scapegoat to focus on, jointly.

The South F/A's after a vote, I've seen before. The North, I'm sure are going to be shell-shocked, and paranoid. If there is anything at all to this "family" stuff, well, strike that, if there is anything to the idea that it's a more gentle, less hostile environment on the "South" side of the world, then I think our attitude will play a role. Not as much as the attitude of the "winners" in the F/A world, but some role nonetheless.

For my part, I'll do everything I can to be part of the solution. I've always tried to be polite and professional with them, despite the divide between our worlds, and it's worked well with most.

Yeah, don't know. Probably something to prove the AFAs worst fears won't come true.

I'm just trying to say there is a great deal of mistrust and fear of the company with the fNWA FAs.

They gave me the impression they were determined to be miserable (personally and to fly with) when they start flying with Delta South FAs.

Funny, but if I remember correctly, there was a little bit of chatter from us pilots about how terrible it is going to be to fly with a N (S) delta pilot. I will show them, yadda, yadda, but when we actually co-mingled as a crew, we each found out how much we had in common and the N/S issue really is dead for all intensive purposes.
