Life at Compass

I think the employee meetings are cancelled? Can anyone confirm?

LOE passed, can't wait to tear it up on the line (or maybe tear up on the line? I'm a little nervous). I need to read the contract but the timing worked out; we get Christmas and New Year's Day off. I'm enjoying these holidays like it's the last supper.

How does one get started on the CFI renewal through our POI?

Complete the 8710 and email it to our POI. I have his email if you need it, you can PM me.

All this but through IACRA. I'm sure that is a given for most guys now but I forget about it every two years.

Crazy to think that if I'd gone to lax earlier for a line instead of sitting sea reserve for awhile, I would have had the time to get into a class and avoid this whole scenario. Oh well.... hindsight is 20/20.
On the plus side, at least I won't be yet another stupid 1000 121 hr wonder when I upgrade and maybe I'll see more interesting scenarios play out from the easier seat. So in a lot of ways it's actually a positive because now I'll be more prepared and ready. Just gotta try and view it that way...

It's still a Charlie Foxtrot. We still have planes in the air from last night. FML

Our ability to recover from ANY IROP is pathetic.

I just saw that. What's going on exactly? I know it rained a little bit and stuff was landing east for a bit last night.

This is basically how I envision SOC during an IROP, and majority of the time the weather or LAX is Dwight.

 

[BlueMoon]

That's brilliant

I always get the feeling that's what CS is like on ANY day.

I've seen every episode of the office like 9 times and I still lose it every time when Angela throws her cat up into the ceiling.

Canceled one out of SMF already this morning.

Is this solely weather related?

 

[MusketeerMan]

This was basically lack of gate space related. Add in some wx and east ops and it was comical. Delta would check in with ops on the ground and they'd be briskly told 90 minutes to 2 hours for a gate. Silence and then somebody would lose it. We went over the elusive (and unlawful) 3 hour mark (3:09 to be exact) before we got to gate. I've never been yelled at so much by ops, ramp and multiple ground controllers. Pax were surprisingly fairly pleasant considering the events.

Uh oh, thats some insane fine per pax. In CELL class the CP said to blow the slides and get everybody off at 2:45.. they are far cheaper than the fine. And he said it with a straight face.

I remember when he told us that, I was like damn.... looks like we're getting a fine then?

You weren't the only one. I imagine Delta will be footing the bill for the flights that went over the 3 hour mark. With that said, its all kind of B.S. with all the bomb threats and weather happening at the same time...
