Delta management recently again attempted to 'monitor sick leave usage' until the union threatened another arbitration case. They immediately backed off. Our contract lays out profit sharing. They didn't find away around that. It lays out the amount of sick time we are given. They didn't find a loophole around that. It lays out the amount we get paid. They didn't find a way around that. It lays out the work rules. They sometimes try to get around those, but when the UNION investigates the case and finds out they violated the contract they end up paying money for it. So you are wrong. There are indeed pilot groups that have protection, and they are unionized groups.




Your waving a gun with no bullets. It's not going to win the battle. There are only two airlines in the US that operate E190's. JB has nothing worth bragging about there. Sorry.
