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:D

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?

They won't. That would be like showing your hand in poker:). Sorry, couldn't resist...

[QUOTE=80ktsClamp;1159305]In the free text, I made sure to remind them that to make Delta great, if it says Delta on the side of the airplane that it should be flown by Delta mainline employees. :D


Ditto here!

Told 'em to stop outsourcing my job

Not really. It is just that I have been at DAL long enough to see that anything with more than 2 engines has a very limited life expectancy.

The 880, DC-6/7, L-100, 727, DC-8, and 1011 seemed to do fine for us -

Fuel was a whole lot cheaper when those frames were flying.

Yep - agree - name me something that wasn't cheaper (other than ticket prices). Just making the point that 3+ engine airplanes have a good history here.
