I asked that if it was really all about what makes Delta the most money, how about we furlough out of seniority the captains on dying airplanes (like your 767). Then you resorted to the insults. Here's the point:

Furloughing you out of seniority is not a "non-sequitor" or "stupid". It would actually make a ton of sense and make Delta a lot of money. The problem is that it's against our contract. It's the only thing that protects us from just this kind of thing that would make a company more money. The NRT slots are also contractual. Yet you're willing to say "sayonara" to them if it makes the company more money.

It is this level of thinking on your part that makes you so difficult to understand.

Carl, I actually agree with you about defending our contract. If the company wants to draw down NRT they need to replace it with an equal amount or greater of guaranteed jobs. IE, no pay raise for giving up NRT unless it's in addition to saving the jobs.
