Well, I asked you not to mention money in your reply.
I said there is nothing "else" to crow about, since every piece of DALPA communication begins and ends with pay rates. In the first year after signing, there might be some higher W-2s. After the scope givebacks take effect, profit sharing is cut while profits likely increase, and people assign personal dollar values to the QOL hits they have taken (getting sick by flying with sick people, even more time away from home, and missed chances at upgrades and WB jobs), I predict that we will be much worse off.
Now, back to the topic I asked about. How is painting Delta on foreign wide bodies or sick leave harassment good for the pilots?
