Yeah, how does a military guy who is not in the ANG or Reserve avoid 6 months of unemployment while waiting in the pool? If you push back your separation date after getting the CJO aren't you then unavailable?

Delta won't know and probably won't care if you push back your separation date. If you can't make the date, you can take a military deferral. I would try to avoid this, because you are giving up a lot of seniority.
There are jobs other than the military and Delta that you could take in the interim. They probably don't pay a whole lot, but they are better than nothing.
People need to plan ahead of time for this transition. I made the decision to move on, and I realized that I needed to make drastic changes to help that happen. A year and a half before I separated, I moved into the crappiest apartment I could find in Milton, FL. Rent was $499 per month. For 18 months, I put the $1000 a month I was saving on rent in to savings for my transition period. I'm sure you can find similarly creative things to do.
