And the same thing happens during every IROP for us as pilots, as well. Minimum staff to man the scheds/tracking phones means long waits for you. That's what the backpacks are for I suppose.

Just watched Ed's apology video. They had CNN and at least one other news outlet on the big screens in the OCC. Looks like they are more concerned about the public relations impact and controlling the message than repairing the operation.

Have you ever visited the OCC? They always have the major news outlets on. That's nothing new.

Today's Issues
So I was fortunate enough to be working today and witness how pathetic our management is under crisis. Are you kidding me, no one would answer phones, computers gave wrong info and employees were maxed out while management hid in their offices...starting to remind me of the 90's all over again...yah lets buy some more stock instead of investing in our airline, dah!!!

Staffing is barebones in all departments so that the executives can keep fattening their wallets. That's the problem!
It also doesn't help that scheduling and tracking are using technology from the 1980s and doing a good chunk of the work using pencil and paper. Pathetic!
It's after 10pm and scheduling hasn't even started awarding trips or airport standby for F/As...ATL has over 140 positions in open time for tomorrow.

Full disclosure: not ATL based, whenever I'm in that building I am concentrating on training and try to minimize my time there
