The village idiot is back.
SEVEN...you have absolutley no idea what you are talking about....are you on our seniority list? Or are you fortunate enough to have gone on to greener pastures...the REALITY of this situation is that we have been running so unbelievably short on FO's, we are hiring only to cover our limited attrition and to put ourselves at a desired staffing level from the higher ups at Delta.....we are currently staffed at about 3.5 crews to every one airplane....Delta wants us at least 5 to 1 according to my understanding....anyone on here based in DTW can testify...even after displacements out of ATL and hring 100 to 130..we are STILL going to be running pretty short....none of you can even begin to imagine the beating the DTW pilot group has taked over the last year....extensions and junior assigments are a part of everday operations....probably one of the many reasons we sent this TA back to the drawing board. As for the TA, any speculation from anyone outside the 9E pilot group as to when or where the TA will be signed again is just stupid....think what you want...but take it form an active union representative...IT WILL NOT TAKE A YEAR!!!...Upper management wants it done yesterday and they know it will be done right this time or the ramifications to this corporation (on both sides of the fence) will be irreperable.
