With this merger, we have a much larger number of commuters than we've ever seen at DL. However, I still project the ATL non-commuting votes will affect the outcome.

I've commuted enough in my life and I currently do not need to nor want to commute until I retire BUT I know full well I could be commuting at any time so I always support better commuter policies. People who, at any airline mind you, say "live in your base" annoy me and I do live in base. So I as an ATL live in base guy will support better commuter policies.

Thankfully, our CP cares: he never wants us around the terminal without our hat on.

If the shocks in your car are shot already, and your bumpers are already damaged,
If your body is set up so that you can bypass public restrroms for a day,
If your idea of fine dining is Whopper with cheese,
If you had a particular affinity for dealing with troubled youth (so that you may 3work" with the "agents"),
If you liked Mumbai, but found it too clean; and too orderly...

Then New York is the place for you.


I hope there are more people out there like yourself, so I can get the hell out. I doubt it, but I hope. I HATE NY.

Heyas RVR,

With the current MOU 7 debacle, I seriously doubt we're going to see any unity any time soon.

After hearing what I heard today, this issue has elevated north/south relations to "crisis". If left to stand as is, there will be a rift that will take years, if not decades to heal.

AMEN I have preached this for a while........the policy will only help both the Company and the worker....but you will get b&tched at my senior guys who will tell you to move into base...that they aren't "giving anything up"
Times are changing.

Not necessarily; it only shows the arrival in east coast time if the destination's in that time zone. :)

Check the ALPA Webboard. This is an extremely serious issue for N-DAL guys.

Okay, I just looked at MOU 7 on the DALPA site. It looks like it provides for a transition from the NWA way of filling vacancies to the DAL way. Am I understanding that correctly?

Crisis? Rift? Years to heal? C'mon, that sounds a little melodramatic.
