I’m not sure what’s on the table, but comparing what we might get to what Delta now has is pointless.

The company floated a mediocre proposal that pits those that have accrued vast amounts of sick time against those who’ve had to use it to intentionally try to divide us on the issue of sick leave and LTD; as can be evidenced here.

I won’t support a decrease in sick accrual (in fact if it’s use or lose it has to be a significant increase and no doctor’s note, I’m a big boy), lack of significant STD/LTD improvements, or penalties for those that amassed large amounts of sick time (crazy as that seems to me).

The company built the present system as a way to extend health coverage from 60 to 65 rather than have genuine retiree coverage. As a result there is a billion dollar liability of unused sick trips they need to reconcile, and they want to take it out of our pockets. It’s not going to happen.
