The time is now, brothers and sisters, to demand an industry-leading contract that hasn't been seen in decades. This public service announcement was powered by Lite Beer by Miller.
It's not a secret. At least Endeavor management has sent out an email stating that Delta is metering OTS hires to 5 a month.
