New Pinnacle Management team

[General Lee]

PUTZ, back to your desk pencil "non pilot" pusher!

How's Dahni doing back in Da Nang? Does IT miss you? Sure it does! Ah Freebrd, you make me laugh. You went to Vietnam to fly right seat in a CR9, and kinda found love. Good for you! Bye PUTZ.


Bye Bye---General Lee

 

[IHateDaley]

Wow, get a room you two.

That's cute but more than half of this company does have hats because they weren't given to us, we still have mismatching coats and jackets because they couldn't afford to give us proper coats. I'm more than willing to wear my old captain hat as a FO with the grey to match the yellow and black with a blue overcoat.... it'll be like a patchwork. Anyway that's my current issued uniform and the hat is optional.

Had to buy my whole uniform here at DAL and no uniform reimbursement. it is a tax write off at least.

 

[General Lee]

Wow, get a room you two.

What? You obviously mean Dahni and Freebrd. I think they did in Da Nang or Hanoi when he was over there as an FO on a CR9, all the way to Vietnam to get more RJ SIC. What a genius. But, he found true love, and he and it will live happily ever after hopefully. Good luck!


Bye Bye---General Lee

Delta is putting a lot of talent into this company. That is a good sign for the future.

Enjoy your $34 an hour for the next 7.5 years

Maybe they're being demoted?

When DAL owned ASA a bunch of 'em retired from Delta and created second careers here They even used RJs for personal transportation to the islands. Still at least one here, CT, that I know of.

Jenny you putz! That cubicle Delta has you in doesn't have a view does it. Or you down in mom's basement on the 'puter.

No hat, blue winter/trenchcoat, black blazer. No uniform allowance. Delta gonna need to pony up some money if they want us to look like professional flight crews. We are mismatched clowns. I couldn't even get a pair of 9e Capt. wings. The only pair she had was broke....I was told to super glue them. Not kidding. It's gonna take at least 2-3 years to get this place running properly. Looks like my predictions are slowly coming true though: 1. Move to MSP 2. Name change 3. 9e operates the 717's. for slave wages.

Man no uniform allowance. I would just quite. Don't think you will find to much sympathy.

Your new President Ryan Gumm
is an ex Mesa pilot, I flew with him in CLT on the EMB-145, he was was a regional chief pilot and then President of Freedom Airlines before going to Comair and Delta's fractional jet subsidiary. I did not know him that well but he seemed to be a straight shooter, I hope for your sake he learned his lesson on how not to treat the employees from his time at Mesa. Good luck.

Hey General,

We are that much closer to a B-scale with DAL. You might be surprised before long.
