My uncle was bored on retirement and applied and got turned down from Lowes... He is a retired chief of police of Princeton NJ, and I guess they had some type of personality test to see if you fit their type and he failed it bahahaha... We wont let him live it down
Yes....place both hands in front of interviewer's face. Make sure they can see your 10 fingers. Count them outloud. Then take your measuring tape and measure the distance between you and the next wall. Tell them you are not going to run that distance into said wall head first, because it'll give you a "booboo". End.
You just proved them that
a.- your'e physically capable,
b.- mentallly able,
c.- made it thru the 4th grade, an
d.- have the "knowhow" to differentiate between right and wrong.
Now, just don't drool in front of them......

Check out this article fron the Mineapolis Star Tribune:
Delta Air Lines posts $1.4 billion 4Q loss, misses Wall Street estimates; Shares plunge
I particularly like the reader comment at the end of the article:
"WT*?
Let me get this straight: 1.4 B loss during the final 3 mos of 2008, net operating losses throughout 2008 and you want to buy another airline? Further, your venture gets approved despite of all the warning signs visible to all parties? This is insane and MSP will get f'd over when Delta finds it must sell all NWA's assets in order to stay afloat."
I wonder what this means for CMR?

As per NG4, unless we get out overall cost down, Mesa losing Delta flying will not make any difference for Comair. NG4 stressed that we need to cut our cost across the board. And he is not just talking about flight crews. Do not expect to see any flying for Comair unless we reduce our cost significantly. That could take a couple of years.
Delta can kiss my.....!!!!!!!!!

What more do the bastards want? In my department, they have been firing the fulll timers, getting rid of supervisors -folks who are up on the seniority list have been having charges trumped up on them and getting let go, they pay is crap, you put up with a lot of BULL FECES, and they want more cost cuts?

Perhaps the idea is to fire enough people until we can't sustain an operation?

From what I've been seeing is that they're getting rid of the senior people and not filling their positions. Any emplyees they had, get dumped on someone elses lap. So their workload and responsibilites are increased but get paid the same pay. Customer Service can't even keep people anymore, that's why they aren't allowed to partake of the 55/early out programs. Most over there are on the low end of their scale. Somehow I don't think I'll get my merit increase this year, after we fought Ng3 to get it back. Next thing to go is profit sharing...mark my words! It also ****es me of about all this "we're too expensive" crap! It's Delta's fault! They're the ones that are shrinking us and incresing our operating costs. The more we shrink the more unviable we become.
