That is some funny stuff right there, coming from the "Latest and Greatest" thread. I have stepped away from this echo chamber and only check it when something "interesting" has happened at Delta, like Friday's hiring announcement. In general this place has grown more useless than the DALPA forum, with the same guys repeating the same drivel. I believe you'll agree that the number and variety of posters here has declined dramatically. Occasionally it still provides entertainment, like Check Essential posting we won't hire minutes before hiring is announced. Or FtB mathematically "proving" that mainline won't grow when the fleet plan is on Delta Net. Or 80 claiming his childhood as airline experience.
You call my post dishonest spin. I quoted you and linked back to your original post. It doesn't take "legions" to do what you claimed in your response you meant. I'll leave it for the other readers to judge your words; I know what they meant to me and you received a response. BTW, the current MEC has 11 or 12 of the voting reps with a straight CIV background. We're already where you hope to go.

Again, an interesting perspective. When I quote and link your post it's dishonest spin and shooting inside the circle. When you post, it's pure and for reform?
It's unfortunate that when pointed out your words made you uncomfortable. I've had several posts like that (particularly aimed at BuzzPat) which I regret making. I also fully believe that you want the best for our careers. But I don't believe your rhetoric helps get us there. I'll address your PCL comments in another post.
