I did not label you as a child. It was used figuratively. I can't say I'm sorry you take everything literally. You're not really a child nor is Delta your real family. It was a comparison. You wouldn't want one of your children to give others a bad image of your whole family. Make sense?

I'm fairly certain you have not asked this particular question nor have you heard it directly from the other 12000 pilots at the company so it's kind of an exaggeration to say you know what the majority of the DAL pilots desire. You can only assume. Regardless, it doesn't matter what you really feel. DAL mgmt called the shots and they don't really care what one pilot really thinks. It is what it is.
