Totally agree but you all sold out on scope a long time ago. Now sleep in the bed YOU made.

This is your conspiracy theory. Until I see an email from DALPA agreeing with your conspiracy theory. I'll file this in the cabinet next to the Sandy Hook crisis actors, file.
3) If you can't understand why this is a bad precedent going forward, I have some oceanfront property to sell you.
Refer to my response to question 1
4) Your actions will have adverse consequences on your career.
and
It's a better action than when you sold out your scope. I've been here over 13 years. The SSP will take 3+ years to get to my seniority number. It was a useless gesture on Delta's part. I'll be at another company long before I get the opportunity to be at your blessed Delta.
5) The pilots who do get hired at Delta (if any do) will have to overcome the black cloud over their heads as a result of their choices.
The black cloud will only be associated with the 1 per-centers like yourself. I have been in this industry too long to give a **** about you being a little grump in the left seat. My friends that have flowed have never met anyone with your attitude. As I stated, you're the 1 per-center of the group that everyone else has to deal with.
