Any "Latest & Greatest about Delta?" Part 2
#3421
Disillusionment with Delta is no longer limited to Chitchat. It’s rapidly spreading throughout all segments of this pilot group.
I don’t waste my unpaid time standing at the door and saying goodbye to the passengers. I make sure the appropriate checklists and pilot-related duties are complete, then leave. Just like my peers at every other major airline — who earn the same compensation for the same job.

Oh, and by the way, in case you do actually read 10.3.8, the word "should" in the FOM was many years ago was ruled to mean "must" unless there is some overriding circumstance (don't think your personal grudge applies). If you didn't know all that you haven't been here very long in the big scheme of things.

Some of you might like to look at FOM 10.3.8. Standing at the cockpit door during deplaning to thank customers IS ACTUALLY a specified job duty. BTW, are preflight duties paid? Are there any other job duties that you intentionally skip?

I’ve also heard the argument “Oh pilots have to stay, what if something goes wrong?” That’s totally fair, but either we have to be there or we don’t. That would mean no boarding of the aircraft until the pilots are on board and that would throw our on time numbers into the abyss.
Just try saying goodbye to every pax on a 757-300, then packing up your nest, grabbing a bite to eat, and walking four terminals away in the ATL and see how long that takes you.

...not sure how most of the other of the pilots out there still to manage to say goodbye... but I know you're kinda special.

What's with the chit chat ad hominem. Is APC posting only allowed if you have enthusiastic love for a corporation? I'm only allowed to post here if I believe being a Delta. Air. Lines, Inc aviator is a calling? I guess in order to post here, I need to tagging Ed in posts on workplace thanking him for being so great. And making sure to thank my CPO for the opportunity to come and serve them every trip.

I bet you used to post Jepp changes on your own time, too.
Bro, we get it. You're an LCA or a chief pilot. OK. But there are fewer and fewer pilots who are buying what you and your bosses are sellling by the day. They have no integrity. Stop carrying their water.

Standing at the door doesn’t work anymore. Usually the cleaners board and start cleaning during the deplaning process. This includes the forward lav which leaves us nowhere to stand. Combine that with catering and the flight attendants, it just doesn’t work. We’re just in the way.
Most of us use common sense. We’re polite to everyone, greet any customer we can, then we get out of the way and leave when there’s a break.
