needs to be removed from flight ops yesterday.
If you think he really has that kind of power, I’ve got ocean front property in AZ to sell you. But whatever. APC has changed zero minds ever.

I think you are unfamiliar with his role within flight ops. He is a yes man to his bosses. And a “no” man when it comes to pilot qol issues.

He routinely "renegotiates" the contract as he sees fit. He's set a precedent within flight ops of deeming what is and isn't acceptable for DH seat assignments and often tells pilots they have not been harmed when, in fact, they have. He also sits at the table with a company special project pilot to talk to the union about contract compliance. To say he doesn't have "that kind of power" completely ignores reality.

This is going overboard. JZ is a wealth of info on Skyhub and usually addresses pilot questions rather quickly. If someone has an issue with DHs he's on it quick. Likewise with layover hotels. I agree the his handling of the uniform debacle was subpar. Way too defensive

Not sure why anyone bothers to deal with DH issues via Skyhub. After I was unsuccessful in my interaction with the gate agent I went to ALPA, who has added my case to their current grievance.

“on it quick?” If there is a dh issue on skyhub, it’s too late to fix. He’s the guy who said “trust the automation.”
which doesn’t explain why DH FAs have recently been getting upgraded to C+ before Dh pilots.

he helps with layover hotels? You may want to ask the hotel committee about that.

And I notice you didn’t say he “helps with training hotels.” I bet that clown has never stepped foot in one of those gross Sonesta Select bathrooms.

And if he has and still makes us stay there, he can **** right off.

he is not here to help pilots. He is here to help Delta.

Just wait until he uses the "fix" he gave you on SkyHub as evidence that the pilot has been made whole for a violation and no compensation is due. Sure he is responsive, but his actions are purposefully designed to minimize company exposure, nothing more.

Anyone know what the code “L4C” means on a time card and/or schedule? I searched in the pay code lookup feature on DAL ALPA website and couldn’t find anything.

They're using PWA references as pay codes for violations. Look up PWA 23.L.4.C

were the DH FAs senior to the pilots? Because since the FAs get everything we do, it’s processed in seniority order.
Honest question. No snark.
