You've said exactly that. You've said you can't wait to hear Carl screaming all the way from Florida when the 747 gets moved to Atlanta and he gets displaced. So has slowplay and all the others like you. It's just a curious trait because I haven't seen it before until I've come here.

So I'll say again, it still surprises me that there are such a high percentage of tsquares among fDAL pilots. It's a culture I just don't understand. I know I'm not alone. It's probably the non-union culture at Delta coming through whereby the only union that can survive here is a union that only pretends to be a union. The testing wasn't targeting pu$$ies, it was looking for highly effective people. RD people have plenty of legitimate debates about how aggressive we ought to be, and plenty of different opinions. But if you line up the pre-merger contracts, and make inferences about the populations, you can't make the idiotic argument you're making. You get the last word, maybe you'll use it to start making sense. |

You get the last word, maybe you'll use it to start making sense. You can go off on me all you wish, but I'd heard about the "unique" culture at Delta for a long time. I heard it from Delta pilots, Pan Am pilots and Western pilots. I resolved to wait and see for myself. Now I see it too. Our culture has a greater number of pilots who would never strike than any other major group I can think of. I still think a majority would strike as a last resort, but a significant minority wouldn't. To me, that's weird. Carl |

Denny, that's not what he said and that's not what you bolded. He said our contracts should pass by high 80 percentiles.
Instead, DALPA/management seem to target 50%+1, then DALPA gets an additional 10% by claiming there's no plan B, or our negotiators will resign, or you don't want to know how bad management's plan B will be if you vote this down, etc, etc. Carl He may not have "said" that but that's exactly how he came across. If a contract needs to pass by anything above 50% + 1, then the will of the majority is being subverted and he calls that Unity? Denny |

Carl Okay, I went back and reread his post. I may be taking the Unity thing out of context but his comment implied to me that there could not be unity with anything other than his way of thinking. Just from a numbers standpoint, there is more unity within the majority than the minority. Denny |
