Ya know Edwin, a lot of people here have tried to get you to grasp the fact that your trash talking does not help the situation. Yes, DAL MEC did mess you guys up. I know your former MEC Chair and Negotiating Chair and got the information from them as it happened. They also told me how Prater and Moak acted. So on that point, your facts are correct.
But calling people "cancer" and denigrating other pilots who did not have a say in the deal is crap on your part. As mad as you are, you are full of it because you would not have walked away from your job if the roles were reversed. By slinging mud and making assumptions about seniority integrations, you have completely trashed your credibility and done nothing to help the cause of the Midwest pilots.
Assuming there will be seniority integration discussions, don't you think you are going to make it harder for your reps if they walk into an environment that people like you have made hostile by your statements? Or don't you care?
It would seem to me (and apparently some others here), that you need to consider that possibly; just possibly...the RAH pilot leadership and the IBT may be willing to find a way to help preserve your jobs. But if you and others keep up your attacks, you may find the olive branch tossed aside.
