Delta offers furloughs

[767/757]

Front line employees are being asked for voluntary furloughs in the wake of higher oil prices and decrease demand to Asia. I should have a link later.

Not really furlough but not good news either.

I feel bad for any sw pilot that has to fly w tanker clown. It really does not say much about your interview process if he does get on. Most likely scenario he got turned down at delta and is still bitter.He does not have an interview w sw if he did he would be on the sw post about the latest hiring. What a sad case.

 

[SWA/FO]

Just like you did in SLC when you bought Morris. They had over 300 daily departures. Now what do you have 40? The arrogance of most of you SW guys on this board is amazing.

kidding, right? You ever read OY6 or the General's posts?

Ouch. Can't believe they would make him go through the whole process again after giving him the thumbs up. Hopefully he'll get called again.

No kidding. They should make him pay for his training like they do at southwest.:laugh:

What? You're proud that Delta kicks their newhires to the curb when times get tough?

Good for you, what a fine company.

How did the SWA interview go? Is the DB today?

Unfortunately (for them) tanker toad already works at Swa. He likes to bash Song (never gets old) and yank people's chains behind his little perceived cover.

They should rename this web site www.DALvsSWA.com. Every thread turns into the same old cyber battle. It's getting old guys!

I haven't been a major agitator on here but I have been known to sling some mud on occasion. Sorry.

SWA guys, you guys have a great company, great pay, and some really cool pilots. Please keep it that way.

DAL guys, you rock! Disregard the haters. Keep Climbing!

Arrogance? You mean advocating a fair way to do the SLI? The same way every other major airline merger has happened in the past few years? Your arrogance is trying to avoid it. And, we all see that famous "culture" of yours isn't always followed on FI.


Bye Bye---General Lee

That explains it. He lives a simple life.

Calls haven't even gone out and I got the job?!? Sweet! Thanks Noserider76. I'll quit my current job!

Then who will serve the colonel his coffee?

 

[twobits]

Are you talking about the Comair/Delta merger General?

 

[poppi]

Tanker clown you are a embarrassment for aviation and sw

Talked to a Delta management guy jumpseating yesterday and he said a deal with Republic was in the works flying 170/190's due to the cost of gas. Sounds like a smart idea.

It's a leaner and meaner AF. It's what has allowed us to make more money than Delta over the past decade. I know, I know, the Air Force doesn't make money...but neither does Delta. At least we come in just way over budget. So, to answer your question: Colonels get their own coffee. I get my own and I am a colonel.

Actually if someone would provide us with his name via private email we can make sure he doesn't join us at SWA
