In fact their performance since leaving chapter 11 probably surpasses unions in any business. You made it clear many times you want to burn the house down and dance on Delta's grave. The good news is the majority of pilots don't agree with you.
Does it really bother you so badly to see the projections put out for contract 2012 turning out to be if anything understated? Relax a little and enjoy life.
Take a look at this forums other threads and ask yourself why Delta appears to be the first choice for everyone wanting a airline job. The results speak loud and clear.
We certainly have different opinions. I feel like management took 4 times what they needed in chapter 11. Somehow it's ok for management to make millions for themselves while they feel we must accept a permanent reset.
Don't want to burn down the house. Just restore our profession.
Management has tough work to do and I respect them.
They do not have to make split second decisions in hundred million dollar machines that hold peoples lives in the balance.
What is the cost of an accident? AF 447? $500 million? $1 billion?
That my friend is a lot of responsibility. A responsibility that no other job entails.
Let's all work together in a honest and honorable fashion to make the gains we so richly deserve.
