Management keeps getting millions and we got 3% in July after taking a 45% pay cut. Like I said, I don't hold it against any of you...its your choice. But remember, we have a family to feed just like you do...and most of us have college degrees or some other type of post-secondary education. Once again, I am very surprised to hear this...and have to say that I have not had 1 pilot tell me we should not unionize, actually I have seen pilots with AFA pins on their ties that why I asked. Also remember that there are many of you that have a spose, or other family member that is a F/A...
So far we have...1 yes and.....lots of he!! no...
I have talked to plenty of pilots who will support AFA. If you think it is the best thing for DAL FAs then by all means try to get it done. I would say in NYC at least 50% of the pilots would support AFA. With that being said I wouldn't expect much more help than wearing an AFA pin from the pilots. Notice thats all any of them have offered to do.
