Well, there is a work around now so somebody is doing something. I find it hard to believe that guys are missing flights over this issue right now. You made it sound like you missed a flight yesterday over this issue, not 4 years ago. If the agents know there is a work around most of them will make it work. If they won't, get the captain involved and 99% of them will make it work. You are going to have a long bitter career if you get so worked up over stuff you think needs to be changed that doesn't get changed. And if you start denying Delta guys the jumpseat, you just as well pull your app from Delta.
