QOL is very subjective, I thrive on habits that might kill you, to paraphrase Mark Twain. I did 6 years of corporate (good company, major newspaper), 5 years of airline (EAL, absolutely hated it; 3 on, 3 off meant one was either coming or going), 18 years of AF (great or not so much, depending) and now 7 years of corporate (great to really good). But, I freely admit I've seen and been acquainted with operators that all the tea in China couldn't get me to work for. I don't understand how their pilots come to work, but they swear by their boss.

No worries GF. I remember the thread quite well, & your statement wasn't entirely inaccurate.
I just wanted to clarify that I wasn't one of those moaning about corporate work. It's good you've found a good, enjoyable job. I feel I have one too. Many aren't as lucky as us.
I don't want the DPJ's flying. I just want Delta management to honor the contract they signed. I do I every time I come to work, heck sometimes even away from work. It'd be nice if they would honor it too.
