It should have been done right.
If this is the best ALPA can do when the company's making billions, I'd say you've done a magnificent job lowering expectations.
Then what enhancements do you propose? Unlimited, unmonitored, paid personal leave? Is that what Delta owes you for being a company making billions of dollars? Conversely the passengers could suggest they want a fraction of their ticket price back by the same logic. Would you support that?
It was done right. You're digging deep on this one. A truly honorable and honest pilot group wouldn't need ALPA's protection from a sick leave investigation at all. In this case though, ALPA went to bat for those who insisted on abusing an already fair system.
