What, I'm saying is that from an outsider looking in, I would say Delta likes to hire guys that are arrogant. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that, it's simply an observation. Jerks is perhaps the wrong word, but the guys hired from XJ outside of the flow were quite arrogant. I'm just saying the people Delta doesn't want are the immature ones, not necessarily the D-bags.
I'd say that just about clears it up. Got-it.
"but the guys hired from XJ outside of the flow were quite arrogant."
Like you said, nothing wrong with that but I'm curious, how many would that be exactly, that you know of that you base this opinion on?

How is that a gain? It was a loss. Id like to think not forclosing on our homes and supporting our families was more important.....

I know a lot of guys who applied there during the XJ bankruptcy before the merger of NWA/Delta. Not many got hired, I only know of about a handful.

As for not foreclosing and supporting families, that's the same reason a scab gives, but everyone knows scabbing is crossing a huge line and a no-no. If one wouldn't scab, they still manage to take care of their mortgage and their families. I have faith you would have found something else to support your family. I'm not saying your situation is like a scab, I'm just saying to make a point.

Good, I wouldn't start over at another regional if I could help it. Good luck in your next endeavor, are you still in the airline industry?

The monetary bribe payment to vote yes. That was the gain, along with this Delta SSP which is going to help a lot of those who otherwise Delta wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole. That was the other gain.

I was waiting for someone to mention the S word completely out of context, and I knew who it would most likely be. and why even say crap like that and then have some BS disclaimer in the last sentence????? go ahead, if you thought of the scab word initially, call us scabs. Don't sugar coat it.

Sounds like your one of those guys in the interview that met all the requirememnts but were able to fool them to think you were someone with character, integrity and professional. Probalbly on the Captains no fly list..Hope you go far with that kind of attitude..

Remember, we're double breasted van admirals. Thus, jerks. Every last one of us.
Speaking of, next time I'm at work, I'm going to walk down C and D concourse and judge the regional guys that aren't wearing their hats. That's of course without making eye contact or acknowledging their presence.

What about us major guys who don't wear hats and make more $$$ than you?
