It's been what about 2 weeks or so since DALPA sent out the bag tags? In a lounge the other day fully 2/3 of the bags were sans C2026 tags. What's wrong with some of these people. I find it hard to believe they don't have the tags yet. Again at least 2/3 didn't have them.
It's not that hard. Put the tag on your bag. Simple, easy and the message we're sending is supposed to be unity.

Today those pilots are aging out and we are becoming a decidedly different demographic, so I'm surprised we don't see more ALPA swag about.

It's always been that way at Delta. Historically we hired 90% ex-mil (conservative) until the 1990's. Every A I flew with as a new hire sounded like Rush Limbaugh.

Always Amazes me how you can find something political out of the most mundane
I don't give a rats a$$ about your or anyone else's politics. DALPA is our representative in contract negotiations. If they ask us to display unity, that's what WE need to do. Simple. I've posted this before, our unity scares the crap out of the denizens on the 4th floor. Right now a casual observer from there is not too scared.
Put your tags on. Support our NC and MEC. Unity.
