As interesting as Delta’s handling and hiring of minority or majority candidates is.

When does this go back to being TOTD?

I second the motion.


Reset sequence activated. TOTD Reboot complete.

It never stopped being that. The only difference is the TOTDs have been self reporting.

Yes, almost as fun as working with a "woke" FO who gets triggered when you wish the passengers a Merry Christmas.

Well said. I’ve also found that the few people I’ve flown with that make stupid comments like “A monkey could do this job, lol!” are almost always weak pilots.

It doesn’t take a genius intellect to make it to the top, but unless you’re incredibly lucky it does take a lot of effort and above average intelligence to navigate all of the obstacles along the way. Even then, like you said the unlucky ones may never get a shot for whatever reason.

Would you trade your lily-white skin or your gentleman sausage for a few hundred seniority numbers? Go ahead, I’ll wait.

This goes out to the 2 Cockpit crew members of UA flight 6383 operated by Mesa on Saturday morning. Talking loud enough that the entire first half of the airplane could hear how immature you are and with their lack of regard to inappropriate language was just awesome. I salute your professionalism.
