Delta would have been better served in the last negotiations by trying to reduce the total sick hours we have rather than going the verification route.
This is coming. DL will have to negotiate with ALPA to mitigate the effects, otherwise they will take an enormous hit in productivity and employee cost. If I were ALPA, I'd be looking to trade the benefit for a pension, nothing less.
That's exactly what they do. If you work on Wall Street you pay NY state and city taxes. If you work for Delta in the training department you pay GA taxes even if you live in FL. It's a income tax not a residence tax. Professional athletes pay taxes in every state they have a game. We are unique in having a exemption that allows us to fall back on our state of residence as long as you don't do more than 50% of your work in any one state.
