Once again to fail to grasp on what what the message is. Yes anyone can do my job, but not anyone can do it well. Yes anyone can do your job, but not everyone can do it well.

Flight attendants at regionals make less than at mainline, why? because F/As at mainline usually have higher qualifications for the job. Just like you guys, thats why you get paid more than your regional counterparts. Yes I know aircraft sizes etc...

Once again, I am not arguing that every single one of you has earned what you make, and you deserve every single dollar!

Yes I feel confident that any pilot at Delta is very capable of landing a 757 in the worst weather conditions, or with an engine out, or whatever the case may be. No I do not feel confident someone with 300 hours can land an RJ at LGA under very bad weather conditions...
Thats why there is that big of a spread between someone who just barely meets the qualifications, and a professional. We at DL like to see each other as professionals, and this as a career. On the other hand a 21 year-old with absolutely no work experience that just got hired on at Mesa might see this as a job...and only a job.
