I'm happier not chasing the money. It's like trying to find the best time to get in on Apple stock.
AAPL is still "cheap".

FYI, this is what happens when someone tries to attack you on the side of the road and you're friends with newK. No matter how far away, newK can power jump to your rescue.

This is a Rorschach test right?

A) 3 year old SWA pilot in the making,

B) 80 in the morning.

It's obviously B. Don't know why.

Ok, took the survey. No mention of hats but I do hope they "de-identified" those taking it or my termination notice is probably on its way

Guess I shouldn't have taken it after reading the DALPA forum, always puts me in a bad mood

I took it and hammered them about the "branding" questions(s). Told them it's hard to have a brand when you're sending your passengers to subcontractors.

Sounds like what I told them. That and I took exception to "what makes this a great place to work", talk about not wanting to hear about warts to begin with. I mentioned that if it says Delta on the ticket, a MAINLINE Delta employee should do the flying. Guess well see, when does the survey close and when/if will the company provide results?
