Dude - you know not of what you speak. With an attitude like that you'd get torn limb from limb at Delta.
We have this thing about entitlements at Delta. We hate them.
What Delta does like are young, low-time, talented aviators (read turbo-prop pilots). Why would Delta hire a 55 year old with 17000 hours over a 28 year old with 3500 hours? Because statistically the 28 year old with 3500 hours will have a lower rate of training failure. Plain and simple.
The interview process over the last 20 years has been color blind. While Delta certainly enjoys a close relationship with OBAP, or whoever's scholarship recipients were getting 737 types in our simulators, the interview process was made to be gender and race neutral. You must be confusing United with Delta or something.
You owe Doug an apology and you might as well quit paying the $60 a year to have your Delta app in.

Doug's a good guy, and you should use both sides of your brain. Feel free to throw your grenade down the aisle. Or I guess it's more of your head overheating. Too bad the fire suppression stops at the net.
Does this make you part of the 5%? All of your posts are condescending to those that are giving their all to be at a major, or God forbid your own carrier. Where did you come from? Regionals/military? You have to start somewhere. Good job on the "paying it forward" mindset.

I'd go to Pinnacle before US until that USAPA mess is straightened out. There may be some fantastic individual pilots over there, but collectively they the Gulfstream / Mesa / Freedom of the legacy carriers.
... at least better than GoJetsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.
