are you a delta new hire?

that's good for the delta new hire and bad for the nwa new hire. I've got friends that would retire in the top 10 because they were in the 1st few classes at nwa. I don't think they would be anywhere near that if it was date of hire.

why not ratio the classes together. 1st with 1st and so on down so that the last classes are ratioed together. otherwise you could just put the nwa new hires ahead of the delta ones so that nwa's would get their career expections in relationship to retirements met.

both groups should just go to vegas and sit down at the roulette wheel. if it lands on black, delta wins and nwa is stapled, if it lands on red then nwa wins and delta is stapled. as a consolation prize the loser gets to keep their uniform. that way both airline could come away as winners and losers...
