3 words: Meet and confer. That's a conflict of interest regardless of outcome.
I dont have anything against the RJ guys either, they are just a squirrel trying to get a nut like the rest of us w-2 employees. However, I disagree with your assesment that the mainline (wholly) created the conflict of interest...the Union sealed that deal.
I don't recall having any vote to spin off Compass, Mesaba or ASA. Now the only wholly owned is getting shrunk to 44 jets. How is that good for the company or assoc. The wholly owned is the shock absorber in the system and despite previous bad blood, Comair REALLY IS a part of Delta. How is this good?
