Section 9. B.1.a. Page 77 goes over how Section 6 is different than an MOU. Any TA must have membership ratification.
It is not possible to make this a cram-job.

As an aside, it's amazing how many pilotsa act like they were threatened by a black polo. What are they going to do? Grow a spine and tell them to get bent.

Glad to see we have time for folks to play games/NYT puzzles and money for community gardens at the GO.

Meanwhile I have to moonlight as a forensic accountant to ensure I’m paid correctly.

Lol. The initial “fear” back then was that their hard sell campaign would sway the most vulnerable among us to vote yes. 1 in 3 pilots voted in favor of TA 1.

In reality, I think that campaign dissuaded more voters, especially after it reached the “PEB!!” stage.

JP has many years of Contract Admin under his belt and sat in many a sessions when our current contract was getting negotiated.

We are the highest paid airline pilots in the world. The company identified the Greenslip pay issue and paid it back promptly. Figuring out pay is not very difficult.

This woe is me attitude from folks making $300-500k+ to the point where you have to troll young GO workers is beneath Delta Pilots. You're better than this

I don’t think anyone is necessarily trolling young GO workers; just an observation that FLOPS has a lot going on (and not in a good way) that is causing our customers to take notice. When our customers are on Reddit discussing the deterioration in Delta’s service/operation, it isn’t a good look for folks—in any position—to be posting things on social media, associating themselves with the company that don’t relate to improving the operation.

Right, wrong, or indifferent, perception is reality. Just my $0.02 though.

They aren't trolling the girl. They are trolling the culture. Did you see the video from profit sharing day? It was a wild party while the actual airline, the one where we make the actual money, was on the verge of crisis.

It's not her fault that she bought into a faux family corporate culture. A lot of Americans think their company actually cares about them. Whats is being pointed out is thst the company spends MILLIONS of dollars a year trying to keep unions off properties and intentionally renegs on and uses the grievance system to go back on their agreements. They chronically under pay pilots. It doesn't matter if I make $300 or $500k a year. If you design a system that, either intentionally or negligently steals x% of that money the is earned, you need to be called out on it. Even if it's via a sponsored social media fluff account
