Pathetic! Rock bottom! The end is near. :(

ok, my bad..

"But Delta pilot Keith Rosenkranz hoped loyal customers would appreciate the extra efforts by employees and keep doing business with the airline"

This guy needs to put down the crackpipe. Customers don't give a $hit about airline employees efforts or anything else for that matter. All they want is the cheapest fare and to be treated like a sheik for $20. If they gave a crap they wouldn't be such a pain in the a$$ to deal with and would not throw crap on the floor of the airplane like it's a garbage bin. F the passengers.....I am so happy I fly cargo!

Ha ha ha....I thought it was already!

They must have really taken some heat over this managerial brain storm. Here is there responce to this boondoggle.

Delta Air Lines Sets the Record Straight About 'Clean Day'
Friday April 21, 3:03 pm ET
Clean Day initiative is a positive for customers and employees


ATLANTA, April 21, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Earlier this week, Delta Air Lines launched its ``Clean Campaign,'' an initiative that includes increasing the frequency of aircraft deep cleans and completing its on-going program to refurbish aircraft interiors. The initiative was launched with a kick-off event, ``Clean Day,'' which gave employees and leaders the opportunity to work together to better the customer experience. It has been mischaracterized and Delta would like to take the opportunity to correct any inadvertent misreporting and concern this has caused. Specifically:


-- Delta executives, together with Delta employees, kicked
off the Clean Campaign initiative by volunteering to clean
Delta aircraft during overnight shifts earlier this week.
-- Delta is not eliminating its overnight cleaning crews. To
the contrary, the company is increasing the frequency of
aircraft deep cleaning procedures.
-- This is not a cost cutting measure. This is part of an
initiative to underscore Delta's commitment to the
fundamentals of customer service and, in fact, the company
has committed millions of dollars in additional resources
to support the Clean Campaign going forward.
-- As they frequently do, employees asked Delta what they
could do to help improve the customer experience, and
from that inquiry, Clean Day was born.
-- Dozens of Delta leaders throughout the company, including
several executives, also participated in "Clean Day"
activities in New York, Cincinnati, and Salt Lake City.
-- Delta employees have a strong history of working together
and participating in the success of the airline.

Further, below are quotes from employees who participated in the Clean Day events.

``Our airplanes needed our special touch and I was proud to be a part of the Delta team.'' Vanessa Womble (LGA)

``I volunteered to do this out of sheer curiosity. I am fairly new to Delta, and wanted to see what it was like. It sounded fun, and it was! Our customers will notice the difference.'' Eric Schoenbaum (SLC)

``I had a great time and would definitely do it again!'' Sandra Fiallos (LGA)

``This event brought us together.'' Ion Balan (LGA)

I can see it now:

Yes loyal employees work for free so senior management can get more bonus pay. What a load of crap! I hope the employees don't lift a finger until all bonuses have been removed.

"Ahh Peter......Ahh, I'm going to have to go ahead and ask you to come in on Sunday, too... "

You have to wonder what think tank this brainstorm come from.
With this type of decision making by management it's no wonder they have lost 11 billion dollars since 2001.

Didn’t you get the memo????
Don’t forget the cover sheet...

And I thought I had it bad loading bodies in and out a 30 years old Lear..
My heart goes out to all of you, good luck!
