Merger is imminent

[GSEMAN]

So?

It is not true?

Give me an example on how it isn't!

Does your super watch your kids when you have to work a double shift 'for the family'?

Give me a break.......

Quite an apropos statement though that reflects your mindset.

Do the 'Masters' bidding and you will have a job!

[Deleted by Moderator- with time off given. We are not going to start this merger talk with name calling and insults. Anyone else want time off go for it.

Wow!! You lost me. I know when I have to work extra and plan for it. I have a support group for my 11 yo but have watched plenty of peoples kids as support. Anytime you have shift work you have to plan. I go out of town often and my spouse works to. I sometimes don't know where I will be until I get to work...maybe MSP, CLE...never know. I do know, if I need anything my coworkers will be there. Not sure I get your reply.

Yes. And I've had his kids at my house a couple times when he got called out of town.
He also came to the house to fix a frozen pipe in the garage when I was out of town.
Loaned me a generator and rigged the connection to the house when the power was out for several days.
Has gone out of his way to help a lot of people, and not just in our department.

I've been to crew parties hosted by supervisors, at their homes, in 4 of the 5 departments I've worked in at Delta.
I've also been invited to parties in departments I work closely with, but am not a member of.
Can you say the same?

Finally a retort that makes sense!! We will make this the best airline ever!! There are some crappy attitudes we have to deal with first though, and deal with them we shall NxNW.

Try it. It'll be a life changing lesson for you.

MMB,

You have been a decent person on this BB (probably more so than myself). 😛
What you say may be true, or it may not be, but your ‘team’ is laying it on a little too thick from my experience.
Yes, I’ve lived in the south and I find little differences than from anywhere else.

Thanks, but I don't know that I deserve it. I tend to get a little hot with the 'everyone has to go union' crowd.

> What you say may be true, or it may not be,
Lie? Never! The truth is far too much fun! 😀

>but your ‘team’ is laying it on a little too thick from my experience.
The "you will find yourself jobless." line was a bit much. The chances of getting fired from Delta are pretty slim.

Yes it is, but not just Atlanta. The five departments I mentioned were:
3 in Atlanta.
1 in San Antonio - this is where the foreman did not host any parties. The crew, however, did.
1 in Boston.
