I had over 5 years left at Delta when I accepted the VEOP. That's a lot of coin at "A" pay to give up. I have a unique circumstance and some altruism. Lots of VEOPs did think about the junior peeps. I know, I talked with several of us in making the decision. If only one job preserved it was worth it. IMHO. Of course we had no idea how many as no metric was tied to VEOP vis-a-vis job saves.

These guys attacking that decision only show how petty and immature they truly are. Manlets. Stomping feet and screaming at the bad Phins. Yeah whatever, get over yourselves.
I think most of the 2558 appreciate what you did, no matter your personal reasons for taking it.
