I care more about my pax than Delta's profits, so I will leave the apu on and try to make my cabin as comfortable as possible. If Delta wants us to care about profits, give us profit sharing.

You bring up pay like we're the only ones to have raised rates. Republic will surpass us soon. Others have closed or are closing the gap. We aren't the only game in town, and Delta's actions show we aren't the "gold standard". However, I do care about my job and being a professional. I will take care of my customers, even if it costs the company a few extra dollars.
