Once again, then any retirement should be shared 1:1. This is our point. You want the to keep the equity of attrition all to yourselves but want to share the negative equity equally. And you have the unmitigated gall to call our proposal an "outrageous seniority grab"! Don't give that crap about "I lose 800 or 1000 numbers under DAL's proposal". I loose 4400 numbers under ours and over 5000 under yours. Both arguments are disingenuous. It's not about the number but what the number will buy. You may have a smaller number but that number will buy you twice as many wide body airplanes, 10 times as many international destinations, not to mention a big ole fat pay raise!
Your MEC was caught speeding (to say the least) and y'all's reaction sounds a lot like my 6 year old. Wasn't me, it's a mistake, the other guy did it! If your objective was to win at all costs, by any means available, then you have been well reperesented. The honest fair ones among you, hopefully are appalled.
You guys are right, the list is done. Further arguments are fruitless. Kinda like the Seahawks still complaining about that Super Bowl against the "Stealers". (Shout out to you Denny!). My only hope is this combined entity will be big and strong enough in these uncertain economic times that it smooths over and alleviates any inequities either percieved or real in the upcomming list.
