Original Comment I'm a companion member of the of Delta airlines, apparently some investigation is going on with selling of passes or companion, the employee is Thomas Edie out of CVG, I received message to call "Delta security" name he gave me is Greg Koon, not sure of the spelling, he asked me normal questions for few minutes which I was happy to help any way I can, at the end, he asked me "what country I was from?' obviously this question begs to be investigated, could it be that Thomas is white and I'm foreign born who's been here in US since late 70's? Is there inference that some wrongdoing "must of occurred?' doesn't take elementary education to figure this out? Had he determined I was born in Cincinnati and spoke with his tone, "I know you wont tell me the truth on this next question" then he proceeds to ask me if I paid money to employee, I told him NO.. never.. this wasn't explained to me, it was done with someone else that I didn't know. So I told him what I was told, then he asks that dreadful question.. Its really bothering me, I'm from Midwest, haven't heard that question since I've moved to DC, people here are shocked at the question and the underlying purpose for such question.. needless to say, I told him 100% truth, I directed him on his voice mail to contact my lawyers with full info how to reach them, this type of questions and innuendo. I even told him I used to fly 15-20 times a year, since companion pass now year and half, I used it 4-5 times most.. Does this make any sense to pay someone to fly less? His demeanor was that of someone who wants to prove himself versus find facts, he can do that by checking accounts, wiring services that are available to all of us.. I urge him to do that before asking people's nationality and predetermining answer before question asked, he could easily be asked the same question, why are you asking to question that you already know? If so, having aggressive tone wont just do it, especially with people like me who are self employed and create jobs, I treat people fairly, its best to find the truth, somehow his version has to fit somehow.. I've never been asked that question, plainly put... its racist.
