Junior Positions by Base Combined NWA/DAL

[licorice]

That's actually hilarious. because I know a lot of people didn't want to go there because DL was just the opposite of what you are saying, just a couple years ago...It has changed that quickly? Must have been bringing on the Ford & Harrison guy in HR that gives you that faux feel good tingle? That or someone is living in the WAYYYYY past.

Delta MEC Chairman Letter (re-posted on ALPC) "March 24, 2006 ......blah, blah, blah.....

You're right, VOR, Delta is a terrible place to work in this industry.....a horrible corporate culture that has historically often been recognized as such.... just the opposite of our "white knight" "rescuers" at NWA. As an example of the NWA culture of "people first", their MEC, in spite of their company's complete dominance in this merger, as well as their own vast superiority in contractual payrates, duty rigs, aircraft, routes, etc.,.... and in an unprecedented act of charity, voluntarily sacrificed their overwhelmingly compelling case for a DOH list... in favor of ratios! -all in the interests of fairness and harmony toward their less fortunate Delta bretheren! (this, of course, happened behind the public scenes of animosity, perhaps during the mediation phase.) So, yes, VOR, while we are now happy to work under the benevolence of the NWA corporate umbrella, please don't apply for a job here, we would be overwhelmed by your articulate incisiveness, you would set an impossible standard for us to live up to, I'm sure. And your eternal, dedicated vigilance at spewing opprobrium at airlines and pilot groups not your own might impress management, who might then offer a vice presidency and a corner office with a view of the busiest airport on the planet Earth. We would be overpowered by your sheer......radiant magificence! (And such radiance, in the lower frequency ranges, could serve to warm your corner of "Fort Widget"....in the winter, it would not only reduce the heating bill, but would attract secretaries, who would loiter outside your office, basking in the mysterious, invisible glow of your ego.)

Voice of Reason: I was wondering when you'd drop a Ford&Harrison reference.

Don't forget to check your tinfoil for holes.

Voice of Whining is a flight ops troll. Take a look at the fractionals forum and see all the Net Jet's guys/gals he's pissed off.
He obviously got the ******************** beat out of him a lot when he was growing up.

Is that number from the DAL side only?
You can speculate all you want about furloughs, but, it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to furlough before SOC, which I would prefer, fair is fair. One pilot furloughed before SOC would come back right away after SOC if there is a pilot junior to him still on the property from the other company. Relax, we are all pretty safe till SOC; afterward, who knows?

That's the DAL side. The Nwa side isn't overstaffed. We may need new hires soon. We'll see

Congratulations. Hopefully, you guys will have a lot of movement, and most people will be happy with their A/C and base. Maybe that way most NWA pilots will stay on NWA A/C and bases after SOC.
