Profit Sharing? Well, Dal made 4.5B last year. Ual 1.97B. Similar story for the past few years. Although as I understand it, our PS should come in pretty good this year now that our margin in north of 6.9%.

Dal pay was 3% more than ours over the last 3 years? Well, it's a good thing we're about to vote in this TA and leap their arse by 12%+ next month. Followed by another 3% Jan 2017, and 2% Jan 2018. So in 2 years we're 18%+ above them and they're potentially still in Sect. 6 based on historical averages. 1.1B in cabbage.

And furloughees made whole? That's just the icing on the cake right there. Did you know Dal furloughees got furlough credit for longevity? We do too...going forward, but this TA makes it RETRO.

Dang, I am SO voting yes. And I'll bet you a beer the membership will vote yes as well. Probably similar to the MEC vote percentage...but i'll take 50% plus 1 dude.

Enjoy your raise....I know I will.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
