The psychological testing is a sham and your comparison is apples to oranges. You guys hired a head case who pulled an axe out of his car then proceeded to play “hero” in his own delusional mind. I guess with 16,000 pilots it’s only a matter of time before someone does something stupid.
A new hire asking a ridiculous question like that is just embarrassing and proves once again how low the standards have fallen in Chicago.

I'll take axe vs car park arm VS airplane vs hailstorm any day.

LAXtoDEN's posting history is proof that DAL has truely scraped bottom and is desperately hiring any trash they can.
Could you possibly imagine posting childish jibberish like he does on another airline's page? Truely the definition of amateur hour.

Ha, ha. Yeah, the guy is just a complete embarrassment. You guys run a great operation and everyone who isn't an insecure DB knows it. I love where I am, but the numbers and passenger loyalty don't lie. 99% are the quiet professionals and that's the way to be. It's just guys like him that are where all the jokes/stereotypes come from.

If timing had been different I would be over there. To attack the TK professionals doing hiring by a Delta guy is pretty classless.

Just flew with a know it all corporate guy with 100hrs 121 that already has a captain bid. First bigger jet and serious napoleon complex. We have trouble brewing. If you can smile and nod you are 80% of the way there at tk. If you have problems at tk you are probably the issue.

I agree. Most of the new hires I fly with on the Bus are decent. There’s only been one that was a half winger that needed some serious mentoring. I ended talking with Pro-Standards/his new hire mentor. Seems I wasn’t the only one to have issues with his attitude. (Former F9 CA).
One thing I see quite often is a blank stare from new FO’s is when I ask them about the flight plans/fuel. A good majority of them just say “my other CA’s just add 1000lbs” or they have no good reason to add fuel. That opens the door to mentoring and my thought process on adding fuel
