After reading the latest JNC ledger, I can't help but feel played once again. In this e-mail the union states, "we are encouraged that management is beginning to see the necessity of having the pilots on board if this merger is going to fly". Seriously? The ship has sailed long ago buddy! Once again, we fold and stand down with the orange lanyards and pound our chest with an email stating that our MEC finally got around to filing pilot harassment grievances. A day late and a dollar short, don't you think? And all this after numerous pilots were chastized in the name of "orange" in public by management pilots, the CEO himself, VP of Flight ops, and even a wife of a one of our management pilots. That management pilot should get his kitchen monkey under control!
During my time with this company, they have never once done the right thing and I don't expect them to change now. In my humble opinion, it's a ploy on company's behalf to maintain a smooth operation during the holidays. Let history speak for itself. Unfortunately for both parties, their actions have lost a good majority of this pilot group in my opinion. The ship has indeed sailed away a long ago and has past the CP. Delta, please acquire this sinking ship.
