This just about sums it up:
Prior to Delta's Bankruptcy filing;
The Pilots took a 32.5% Pay Cut, which amounted to $1 Billion
The F/A's took a xx% Pay Cut, which amounted to $yy
The Mechanics took a xx% Pay Cut, which amounted to $zz
The other non-contract employees took a xx% pay cut, which amounted to $xx
And in bankruptcy, the Pilots took an additional 15% pay cut, which saved
the Company $300 Million,
And their Pensions were TERMINATED, which saved the Company $ XX Billions
And the non-contract employees pensions were converted to a DC plan, which
saved the Company $xx Millions
Since Delta exited Bankruptcy, the non-contract employees are at xx% (90?)
of their pre-bankruptcy pay rates
The Delta Pilots are at 60% of their pre-bankrutcy pay rates.
Delta Management is currently making xxx% of what the previous
Management team was making prior to Bankruptcy
In this upcomming contract, the Delta Pilots, who have contributed many
times MORE than all the other employee groups, combined, will be seeking
to be repaid for their selfless contributions to Delta's latest financial
success, since most of it was due in large part to their generosity.
