Maybe he could strenuously object.

The NPR story is out too

"Delta pilots really do want to be proud of their company. They want to be proud of their representation," Caplinger said. "Currently, we're not proud of our representation."

I don't get this. I like my reps. It didn't sound like it was cut down but he does talk fast. Did he mean to attack all our reps?

"It's already taken a year, and it might take another year. But we're in it for the long haul because it's the right thing to do," he said.

How's that time line lookin?
