Price Is Right comment drew me in. 63/27 yes. Other 10% didn't know how to use their IPADs to vote 
. 18% apathy, no vote at all.
I am a no vote. I may, or may not know, but what I know, I know; and no is the correct vote for us.

At Delta our last contract passed 62-38.
But that was for a 3 1/2 year contract which expires this year.
Six years seems too long. You'd be better voting no on this and at least getting the average of us and UAL on Jan. 1. We'll probably get a nice raise on our next contract if your vote fails. Otherwise we will have a ceiling limited by your pay.
If it fails: We will most likely convert a portion of our profit sharing to pay - a more guaranteed income. This would make our rates higher along with a regular raise not tied to profit sharing thus increasing your pay. I think we'd get at least 25% over 4 years.
If your contract passes - let's be honest. Delta will say our total pay, which includes profit sharing is already greater than your pay. They won't give us much of a raise.
Industry pay will stagnate for the next 5 years with 3% raises as our company's make $10B a year.
