Thought you were having a bad case of the Mondays? Just check out the guys over at Delta Airlines. With more than 650 cancelled flights and many more delays, anyone involved in the Delta outage of 2016 didn’t get the best start to their week.
But don’t feel too badly for them, passengers got pretty crafty and ordered themselves some pizza to the airport tarmacs. Because nothing numbs your rage like a big greasy piece of pizza with extra cheese and pepperoni.
We’ve given Delta a 24-hour grace period, but by now we figured it’s time we take a look back and laugh about the Delta disaster that was August 8, 2016.
You think your Monday is bad?
Somewhere there's a #Delta IT guy in the fetal position under a desk…
AT LEAST YOU AREN'T THAT GUY!!!

After spending an entire day
being jerked around by Delta …I figured out what DELTA stands for –
Delayed Even Later Than Announced
