It's not 20%, and we gave plenty. But don't let the facts get in the way of your being you. :D (love this smiley face; makes it sound like I've got a friendly smile on my face when I write something like this when I really don't).:D

I don't understand. We will get a 19 percent increase to our hourly rates, and our 737 first officers in 2015 will still make less money than Southwest's 737 first officers do today. DALPA said our contract is industry-leading. Wait, I get it. Southwest is not in our industry. We are legacy-leading.

But hey, it's better than watching Newk's video of Super playing pool.

Next time Super, don't lose your bet. Or try so hard.

T's panties are in a wad because he didn't get his $100 from The Manager.

Delta to Add 88 Boeing 717 Fleet - Yahoo! Finance

Up to $750M in cost savings in 2013 alone.

O MY Godness!!! Carl was right!
The industry leading contract is only 10 days old and I already feel like Bernie Madoff victim. When will we learn?

I am very happy to be here and don't want to apply anywhere esle just in case anyone is wondering. I just want Delta to attract the best of the best, that's all.

Well, I went to an eating establishment Friday night called "Newk's" and I was wondering if he would be in there. Didn't see him though. Good place to eat.

I just love keyboard warriors who say crap online that they would never say in person.
