I've been here since Jan 2014. So 12 years.
if we accrued 6 hours per month I would have accrued 864 hours since I've started at Delta.
If I averaged 50 hours of sick leave usage a year I'd still have 264 in the bank.
I have 23 years left till I'm 65. If I continue to accumulate 22 hours a year (72-50 usage) I would retire with close to 800 hours. Isn't that what Delta is trying to prevent? Cutting a check for 800 hours at the top end rate when we retire?
Using today's top rate that would close to $400k.
isn't that what the NWA guys were mad about when the merger occurred?
