It was where Delta new hires were going and Delta backfilled rather than displaced on the bid that saw so much 767 flying leave the base two years ago.

It has not been particularly easy to get into Atlanta, even if seniority would hold it. Atlanta had fewer slots to AE into until this most recent bid.

Here's a fun question.....

Do all the lump sum early retirement dollars get deducted from our profit sharing at the end of the year?

Secondly, do the early outs get a profit sharing check for the months they are working in 2011 or are they excluded because they didn't work the whole year?

Sailing, Bar, slow, whatever handle K.P. uses on here?

And on that note; just how do you blow it with the HR panel?

Does doing any Interview Prep (for Delta interviews) help or hinder?

I believe partial payments earned during the year are awarded profit sharing on a pro rata basis. The amount of your profit sharing is based on your earnings during that year without regard for whether you were employed the entire period.

I do not believe payments from earlier years paid in the current year are considered. Only those earned during the profit sharing period.

(I'm no expert and could be wrong)

So that number is skewed until the AE is done with?

A little. More telling would be the results of enlargement of the ATL MD88 Category and see where that falls.

Being near the bottom of the stove pipe, every other aircraft movement in Atlanta effects it. For instance, if they pull 737 flying to Detroit, the MD88 category would become more senior.

Anyone know how long an ER qual is good for? Trying to figure out if I'm going to have to redo WWO/ TOE's when I convert back to the ER.
