Delta will cut more management jobs

[ACL65PILOT]

Cut are inevitable in this economy. What is so surprising.

After the union votes are done, there will be front line cuts too! Once again no surprise with the economy.
Mid 2010 is going to have a yield turnaround, so anyone with some level of training may be spared, but others will not.
It is business not personal.
RA has a responsibility to the share holders and employees. To date he has done more for the employees that the share holders.
Cutting with a chainsaw this late in the game is stupid and dangerous, it will not happen. Cuts with a scalpel will happen.

Either way, I would rather be here at DAL than at any of the DCI carriers. Talk about scary!

Yep-

Just ignore how these jackoffs lied to every congressman and senator they could find to get the merger approved-then turned around and cut everything they could find. Bad ju-ju.

-What comes around, goes around. Your time is coming. ALGT and SWA are already all over your route system, and they have their sights on ATL. You better believe they will be big touble-a lot of locals are very pissed at recent goings-on, and will not hesitate to jump on a competitor with a similar route structure the first chance they get.

RA and Steenland are making a terrible error by throwing away all the goodwill DAL had built up around the south. They will regret such mistakes in the long run.

Really?
My god we are in the worse economy since the 1930's. Fact is that we are doing better than most. Like I said, I played my cards and went with DAL. From everything I have talked about and some of the things I can't. DAL is going to be the place to be.
Give RA a little room. To date we have not had one involuntary front line layoff. Admin etc has, and that was told to everyone upfront. With unemployment at almost 10% I think that DAL is doing a lot better than 95% of the companies out there. Look outside the box once and awhile.
Fact is that even if they laid off 5% of their workforce, they are still doing better than the rest of the country. Perspective!

Not if you fly an rj!

That's all crj567 has is a little room, ever see his trailer? Besides, with all the business his mom brings back home, there's a line usually forming outside about now! Good thing he has the computer at Wendy's he can use!

Funny, yet most DCI carriers have experienced layoffs.....Hmmmmmm!
That crj567 us one fart smeller.....I mean smart feller!

He can't. See comment above about the trailer!

He has none. Remember, his birth is the result of a gang bang gone bad with some DAL management circa 1985!

Thank you for a good laugh.

Fact is that I need to stop trying to get through to him. Might want to realize that his "info" might be a bit tainted.

We will see who is "tainted" in a couple of years. The math is simple. Who will win? A carrier with a CASM of 10.5, or 7.5?

-Real simple, very predictable. Better start praying.

Mr. d.o.u.c.h.e.nozzle, It would be ok if you move on and put down the Delta Hate Bat. Its really pretty embarrassing to see you make such a fool of yourself on here. thanks

Then you better get off your lazy ass and get hired while they are still small. Just think, you could be very senior at the next best thing. Good luck, let us know how things turn out....

You better stop praying and get to your McRonalds job, pronto! Don't be late again McFry. And, our average CASM is higher thanks to RJs. Guess what? That is being addressed. When we compete with Airtran 717s against our RJs, we LOSE. That really is simple math.


Bye Bye--General Lee

But it's so much fun too! Especially how he signs in and out of his other alter ego, tanker clown!

7.5? Well you are quoting bad data.

Currently DAL 10.51 and WN at 9.54.

Post SOC these numbers are going to look a lot different.

7.5 was for ALGT, and it is for Q2.

-Religion may come in handy-I saw one of their planes on E recently.

Who helped you read all the big words, another co worker at Wendy's?

We know how you like to spend time on your knees kid!

I saw one of their planes on E recently.

Was this on one of your black and white TV's in the trailer?

Easy to have that when you pay an 88 CA 100 an hr.

As the business grows they will not have the turnover, and then their pilots will demand more.

Also, if you look at their utilization, it too will need to go up as they inevitably replace the 88.

I know guys that left that place to come here to DAL. Basing sucks and their QOL of life is worse. If they are to succeed that too will need to change.

They are not our competition.

How will I sleep tonight when Allegiant is out there, knocking at our door?
