    I have a buddy at the ATL Jet Base. He told me they don't have to "punch" in. The NW guys think they're in heaven.

    True, no time clocks here.

    I'm glad this discussion has been very lively. Thanks for everyones imput and opinion. Lets keep them coming. I continue to work with dl and have made some really good friends there. The management in our station really needs some communication training. We need more redcoat/pl meetings. I have not seen the station manager in a very long time. I think that management should be very visable especially when there are irops involved. I look forward to more opinions.

    We had the pleasure of visiting DTW and that terminal was about as lively as this forum! Staff we encountered was great. Coming from CVG, which has closed all but one concourse, it was quite a change. Guess it works both ways in a "merger" so much staff has left for "greener" pastures (had to, to stay with DL) Maybe you'll get some new folks to supplement (replace?) yours. Are you in SEA?

    Mrs767er. Correct. That part was a typo. (MR) No mal intentions intended there. Insulting people is not my bag. And for that, my apologies. Your being a dependent is not a problem on these boards. Refering to a person here as sounding like a whiner just sounded a bit hard coming from someone not quite "Familiar" with the situation. You called it the way you saw it and I called it the way I saw it, so all is fair in love of war. Don't be mad.

    Your quote.....
    as a REVENUE passenger for over 25 years. AA, US, CO, DL, UA--probably purchased more $100,000 of full fare tickets, as well as PeopleExpress (in my lean days before I made 6 figures a year....). I can also tell you my family spent over $11,000 buying full fare tickets to attend my dying father's bedside this past week--several on Continental Airlines via your current hometown, as well as DL via NYC, FLA ORF, etc...

    UH??? Somebody open the window. There is alot of smoke in here.

    Palms, considering you isolated that part of my comment and quoted it out of context, I have plenty of reason to be unhappy with your personal attack about being "dependent". Guess you didn't read it correctly. I can forgive your error.

    Is that the thing that looks like a little button or pins that you put on your hat that the airlines like to boast about for customer service? JD POWER AWARD? I saw something like that at BIG LOTS the other day, something about that award on some product. I just cry some big crockadile tears everytime we miss that marker. I wake up many sleepless nights wondering if we will make the JD POWER list this year. I think I got a JD POWER pin or two kicking around the house somewhere.

    However, we're afraid that "time clocks" will appear now that the current regime is very much supported by the unions!

    You said it. Between the NMB's ruling and the changing of payroll to "Workbrain" (which computes pay hourly instead of monthly) I don't know how long it will remain this way, though.

    I really don't understand the monthly payroll thing. Most people get paid by the hour or are on salary. Why can't dl just say you make x amount per hour?
