I am starting to feel its the latter... Morale in Tech Ops is absolute zero and has been for a long time.... something needs to happen... fast

I try to explain this to people, but they never get it. Delta is getting big city revenue, and paying its employees, small town wages.

Same thing is happening in the pilot ranks. They push you to ignore your contract, and when you don't bend over like the new guys who don't know the contract, they get bent out of shape.
Old pinnacle is showing its head more and more the shorter staffed we get.

I recently watched a (original Pinnacle) line check pilot trying to get bullied into a junior man (well into his off day which would become a 6 day) by TW... I don't think most experienced pilots here are in a mood to roll over watching that... I know I wouldn't have an issue saying no, I've done it before. Sometimes the $ has to be removed from safety.
I guess that's why I'm not Delta material
PS Just say no to hats

Travel benefits question. Been with my girlfriend now for sometime, and have been living together now for over 6 monthes, would they consider that grounds to be able to add her to my travel benefits as a domestic partner?
I guess has anyone on here done this?

Yes you need to justify her as a domestic partner. Shared bank accounts and what ever you can provide to show proof over time.

We are no where close to a Comair and if anything it's the opposite. All 200s will eventually leave NY and go somewhere else ATL, DTW etc. probably mostly ATL. They are moving old ASA to NY where our maintenance is taking over on their 700/900s. Usually in the past a new NY base for a DL regional is to put them down. That didn't happen to us but we will see how it goes for ASA/XJT side. But as far as Endeavor goes, it's moving on business as usual and looking good. We are getting closer to negotiations and that brings out " the sky is falling " type of discussions. There is still whipsaw going on but I can't see that lasting much longer considering the current and future demand of Pilots.

Eventually Delta will do what it takes to keep this place staffed, whatever that entails.

Make us wear hats and tell the new guys how lucky they are to get to look like Delta?

All joking aside, Delta needs us too badly to shut us down right now. If the economy sours or North Korea starts a nuclear war, the highest cost ones will go away. Then again, if that happens, we'll get to see if Mesa really will survive a nuclear apocalypse:-D
