Ditto,

I spent 18 months looking for a job while on furlough. The two interviews I actually got, I got rejected. Finally I get called and now I have someone like you telling me to look for a job again. Thats fine if you want to tell me/us once. But to have to read it every single day, does not make my life very fun having to worry. It affects all of us and probably affects our performance in the cockpit. The last thing I want to hear everyday is that I'm going to lose my job from people like you. If it happens, it happens. If if doesn't, even better. I'd honestly rather not know, and go to work and enjoy what I do instead of reading some of the BS you put up.

Sorry, I just had to rant.

[edit: delete quote]

By "[edit: Comair] Gone by the end of this year" do you mean that on October 31st Delta will start the 60-day doomsday clock?

Or do you mean that when we come to work on December 31st the doors will be locked?

Or do you mean that at any day now Delta will announce that our planes are going away at the rate of 10 per week so we park the last one the last week in December?

Or do you mean that Comair will change it's name to Com Air and the Comair name will be gone?

Or do you mean that between now and December the StayPuft Marshmallow Man will crush CVG?

Or do you mean when we report for duty on January 1 we will feel like we're still employed at a shrinking regional with no direction and no leadership and just bracing for the next torpedo? Because if that's what you mean, Comair has been on that road for the last 6 years.

So what form will our Destructor take?

and bro pilots won't be allowed to even look at it. We'll have to shield our eyes as the jet jocks walk past us to their new and more glorious hero shuttle. Bro pilots will also take another pay cut as the jet guys throw us under the bus again to get to fly it.

Didn't Uncle Jerry already tell you guys? Since you don't put any extra gas in the houseboats, he can't give you a raise. Start generating more cha-ching with those props and he'll treat you like royalty, 'cause that's how I feel everyday when I come to work and see you guys in your rope start, eight governor, 7 generator, miracles of flight....like the king around peasants
