Let me put it 2 you this way. They need bodies so bad at PHL that these open job fair's offer FREE ICE CREAM,bouncy catles, barbecues,etc.The job requirements call for four LIMBS to walk an toss bags. So they never think of height requirement. So they hire 4 foot people. They hire all facets of life......Trust me. 🙄

This guy was lucky to be alive after a new hire ran him over with a tug and cart.......He lived to tell the story.
He told me he saw the guy coming real fast towards him. He was pinched between 2 other carts. His only option was to screem for him to stop. At the last second he realized why he didnt stop. He thought they were ear plugs but they were GIANT headphones with an IPOD. The only reason he knew that was he woke up in the hospital with welt marks around his neck with a concussion. The doctors told him his neck was wrapped with IPOD cords.

PHL has inherent problems. An airport built for the early 1960's, east coast ATC domino effect and one way traffic on all ramps and gate areas. The largest preventable problem PHL has had is no competent management on property after 5pm, weekends and holidays. Almost as incompetent as the Phoenix main office management 9am to 5pm mountain time.
Examples consistently: No one to guide pilots into the gates and despite FAA regulations, no wands, equipment in the no movement area and no sense of accountability from a leader who should be responsible for poor performance. No lav service. No jetway drivers. No tugs. No baggage handlers. Ramp controllers (most of them) who I would never even think of inviting to help coordinate the fluid motion of my future two car funeral. When you are in the mood to call for someone to correct this mess (ie:catching a commuting flight home soon, wanting to arrive before last call somewhere or crew members who need to leave to catch the end of American Idol) no one responds.
But take a little bag cart and run into the jet way steps, while actually improving the looks of it and you will have 15 suits and dresses with cameras and notebook pads who gawk and shake their heads in one minute of the fender bender. They will be out on the ramp for 15 minutes then leave for their reports.
Its not the boots on the ground that is the problem, it's the leaders and the leaders leaders. It is almost like they do not care and are just keeping it together for the next sock holder's enrichment due to a business transaction
This all for the benefit of the employees and the flying public of course.

Sorry typing too fast typo error: CASTLES
Phlforce,
One question, Why are you guy's starving Dave Lehive to death? The photo's of him posted
on previous threads indicate he has not been eating. The last time I seen Dave in person,
I could see a few ribs but now you can see them all. What area do you have him chained up in?
