I agree. From probably year 2 at dal, I thought and said the db should be in our individual names, not some pool for the group. A friend of mine who was the CEO of ge capital Europe asked me two years prior to bankruptcy "when is delta going to declare bankruptcy?" ALPA EF&A never mentioned that.

As a group we are disengaged. We do what we are told without further consideration...as a group. We defer to those who tell us what to do. This still goes on. That's insanity.

We pee away any leverage that falls in our lap and accept what is given to us. We get insulted and mismanaged and don't ask why. We are the only zero defect employee group.

It's not only about money, but it seems like money is all we seek. We don't enforce the contract we are required to live under. I don't get it and never will.

75% of the pilots (and yes I made up that number, but I can guarantee you that it is a large one) don't care about the day to day stuff that goes on at DAL and especially here on these forums. They just don't. They come to work, do the job, and go home. Our contract, contrary to what some like to say, is not onerous. We are not mistreated, and compared to most of the country we are very well paid. That's it.

And as far as Tarrantion goes, even a blind squirrel....
