I have said goodbye to Delta...

Well I officially turned in my notice today...

I have accepted a seasonal position with a ramp services company working for Air Canada...that will get me thru the season and give me a chance to get started in school...The airline industry is no longer the career path it used to be so I need to get out while I can and get back into school while my parents are still saying they will help me out...

I will miss my flight benefits for my parents...but they understand this is something I have to do for me...

We are probably going to MISS you at Delta, assuming your work was nothing short of excellent , right ? and most likely underpaid and underbennied!. Of course, you'll still be in here, yes??
Oh, Canada! Good luck with school, too! SOunds like you have nice parents--take care of them!

Air Canada huh, couldn't go cold turkey. http://www.nonrev.net/forums/style_e...#>/biggrin.gif Good luck in school and happy birthday. http://www.nonrev.net/forums/style_e...DIR#>/wink.gif

Well, I am now officially gone...

I started training on Monday for the Air Canada position and so far so good - except I dont like their system QIK-CK...I will only be working 4hrs a day and that is a perfect schedule for nursing school.

I also started a training class to become EKG certified which will allow me the opportunity to work as a Monitor Tech in cardiac units in hospitals and qualify for a generous tuition reimbursement program to make my schooling more affordable...

I will miss Mother Delta, but I doubt I can ever totally leave the aviation industry...when this seasonal position is over with, I am hoping to find another part-time job at the airport...if at that time Delta can promise me a set schedule that works with my schooling I will happily return! I still hate that I had to leave, but not having a set schedule was a detriment to my ability to go to school...

hey Wayne--good to hear from you--do you do echo-cardiograms, too? I'll need a new one next year!

Once aviation gets in your blood, it&#39;s there for good. http://www.nonrev.net/forums/style_e...DIR#>/wink.gif

Welcome to the AC Family, so u r working for which ground handler? Qik sometimes is not quick at all. for ckin just swipe passport for all pax and then complete ckin pop up. If you have any questions feel free to contact me

I am working for a company called ASMO...I feel at a disadvantage because we are unable to get training manuals...I dont understand the whole story but apparently the union representing the trainers wont let any of them come down to train us and wont allow training manuals to be sent to us because we are a contractor and not AC or United...the trainer that came in is a great guy from Trinidad, but without us having manuals he is having to read everything to us and it is taking forever to get thru the material...
