Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

I beg to differ. You don't have to be a manager or executive to be a salaried employee, regardless of the industry. Virtually every other profession has salaried employees. The hourly wage thing has always been an issue with me. I know why the airline industry does it. Doesn't make it right. If you require college degrees and years of training, you should be salaried. Just like every other non-aircrew employee at DAL.

Philosophically, I agree, but there is no way I want to be on a salary. Having been there in another life, a salary is nothing more than a way to extract more work out of you.

I agree. A salary is a way for you to do free work. As it is now, if we work extra, we get paid extra.
