You don't like where you are??? move on. You won't be missed There won't be a toast in you honor at the afternoon's happy hour at the Blue Velvet Bar, where Dave and the No Tones are singing.
I'll wager that your experience with your next company, if you manage to get by the HR interview (explaining why you want to leave Brand X), and manage to get hired, won't be much better. Probably worse as you will be at the bottom of the seniority list.
Don't sink to the level of your management by exhibiting a less than professional attitude towards your passengers, cabin crew, as well as your fellow cockpit crewmembers.
That said, keep the back pack off, do your job, and rally with your colleagues.
Don't listen to this guy. Stay right where you are and fight for a fair contract. I know you will continue to be a professional. Attempting to guild trip you into doing all the extra stuff you normally do is silly. You have a right to feel the way you do right now. The company touts operating with integrity but they aren't following their own admonition. Being a professional is a two way street. Enriching oneself while selling out another is not leadership nor professional.
I'll fly a trip with you any day! Keep going and be a part of history by voting down the slap in the face contract that finally woke Delta pilots up!
