I commute on you guys occasionally, but avoid doing so if possible. You guys get screwed in DFW. I sat in the jumpseat and witnessed rampers just walking around like idiots, no one wanted to marshal us in, waited 20 minutes, finally got in, and another 15+ minutes for gate checks. Both pilots said it was normal ops. Thankfully the FO went and got my bag so I could run for my connection. Still missed my connecting flight.

Point is, if AA is unhappy they should look at themselves.

Having been based at both CLT and DFW for the majority of my time at Mesa, I can say that DFW is worse than CLT. DFW rampers purposely breaking the luggage compartment, their managers nearly getting in a fist fight with Chuck, with AA coming down hard and firing two ramp managers. DFW purposely making us wait 45 minutes when there were open gates, etc...
CLT comes across as a bunch of dumbasses, while DFW comes across as criminal.
