Don't know what it was like at the fNWA but at the fDAL the fleet captain gig was pretty quiet. Only time you'll ever see one is if you f up in training. Otherwise, its inconsequential and nothing to get your panties in a wad about regardless of whose doing it and where they came from.

I know you like to bring up divisions but I feel like we were past the we/you part and had moved on to "us". Maybe it's because you're behind your fence flying with the same guys you always have to the same places. The rest of us are flying with each other and on each other's aircraft. Management is a hodgepodge of people from all over the industry. This ain't Delta 1980.
SERIOUSLY ... can we please MOVE ON ???

It ranks right up there with the "fingers in ears, chant 'na na na'" maneuver that I see so much....
Carl, you got a pay raise and get to bid "better bases", don't you know when to shut up and row?
That goes double for you Ferd! Your not pulling your oar hard enough!

As always...when the fNWA guys see something unpalatable, it's the fDAL guys who rush in like a beat cop chanting "Nothing to see here, move along, move along".

If we're going to ***** and moan about company stuff, lets make it count. Whoever is the guy or girl sitting in the cubicle on the 4th floor on Virginia Avenue is some really trivial stuff guys. I wager that 99% of us will never know them or even care. That's what I'm saying.
I'd be saying exactly the same thing if some fNWA 747 captain was now the fleet captain on the 73N. IT DOESN'T MEAN DIDDLY! In fact, I don't even know who my guy is. That's how much it matters in the grand scheme of things. Won't affect my life, won't affect yours and won't affect how Delta does business.
And stop dissing the Amish...they make great pies.

Sorry 747 Captain,
WEASLY, isn't a word. If you were referring to the small carnivore of the genus Mustela, of the family Mustelidae, having a long slender body and feeding chiefly on small rodents, you might have more appropriately then, referred to the person as "weasel-like" instead of "weasly".
Thank you, as always, fly safe,

No, what I'm saying is I don't give a **** either way. Doesn't affect my life, won't affect yours, and doesn't matter in the long run.
