Chose one.

But it doesn't have to be a choice.

You can have BOTH.

Employees SHOULD have BOTH!
At this point in time I agree. But what about the next downturn? DAL has to weather the next economic downturn and produce profits in order to be considered a "good transportation company" and not just an "airline". That is the goal. But what if they are not successful? I will say that at this point in time I like profit sharing and that it shouldn't really be on the table in C15. However... when things turn south, we might not be so hasty to put it into the untouchable category. The interesting thing is that when that downturn DOES occur, management will be more than willing to keep or even raise it.
