Ok, so if you have two applicants, one white male,a woman or minority with the same qualifications and no negative problems against them who do you think is getting hired, give me a break. This is more of a situation when the airlines are "extremely picky" when limited hiring is occuring like now. I mean does anyone else agree with me?

I'm sorry you're still bitter over Comair. But in my 6 years at Delta I have NEVER seen any Delta pilot treat a regional pilot poorly. Most are quite accommodating, friendly, and sociable to regional pilots. And most of the time my captains allow regional pilots to stow their bags in the flight deck, even if they're sitting in the back.

Most likely what he is experiencing is his own bitterness radiating outward and bouncing off of those he accuses of being bitter towards him.

If you guys ever walked a mile in a Comair pilot's shoes, you'd understand his frustration. We all experienced it, even those of us that had nothing to do with the shenanigans of the early part of the last decade.
Some of the shunning of the Comair guys by the Delta guys was real, some was just perceived but regardless, there was bad blood on both sides. Lots of people on both sides couldn't let go of the past and move forward. Unfortunately, it was the junior Comair guys that had nothing to do with any of it that paid the price for the mistakes and miscommunication and other nonsense of the early 2000s.
His frustration is understandable from my point of view.

Umm... I never mentioned anything about Comair and being bitter towards DL because of that whole debacle. That's all in the past. That's not why I wouldn't want to work for Delta. I have my own personal reason. All I mentioned earlier was how I think the whole hiring selection will go down based on my past observation. You guys don't have to agree with me. You can look at the DL hiring news thread, obviously I'm not the only one making these observations.
Anyway, I'll let you guys go back to discussing sick calls. Carry on.
