Good for me as an employee? Is that like eating my broccoli? Or building character? I am already enough of a character

Although I do not agree with the fee, I feel it is a give and take. I have worked at other airlines where the employee pays a fee everytime they non rev beit a small amount, (10 dollars or 15 if in first.) And that airline was 12 years ago, who knows what they charge now. Also, in the past Delta did charge employees a rate for travel but was removed. I see the trend coming back and frankly with the state of finances, Im surprised it hasn't as of yet.
