The un-hireable personalities included? Remember, 9E has taken guys without even having any interviews. Straight from an approved college program into a 9E newhire class. There's a big difference between RJ flying and mainline flying. On a RJ, you can hire a bad personality and not have to put up with it for more than an hour to two hours. At Delta, you have 737, 75/76, 777, etc, and have to fly with guys for 7-12+ hours. Here, you need to make sure you weed out as best as possible all the bad personalities.

I need you to teach me Prefbid to get those 1-2 hour a day schedules! Lord knows most of us fly 4-6 legs a day with 12 hours duty with the same guy! 4 days in a row!

I hope that you are right. Flow will destroy the character and strength of Delta Air Lines. Many of us have already seen it 1st hand. The entitlement attitude, youthful naivete and general lack of professionalism is disturbing. If one wishes to join the ranks of Delta, then work hard, study hard, and for heaven sakes, fill out an application. Otherwise may I suggest Virgin America...I think they may be hiring.

Whether the bridge agreement happens or not remains to be seen, but that is the process that is in place right now if classes started today.
Nothing I have said is arrogant or entitled.
You on the other hand.......

wth? If Delta didn't want you the first time, probably won't want you a second time either. It's not like there is a sim eval that you can really screw up. All of it is computerized testing, HR type questions in where you have to be yourself. Then a wildcard shrink portion, but still.
