I'd say the influence of the forum world had a good influence here. Revised TA passed...no memory rat.

Shall we just simplify it and call the CDOs "voldemorts?"

The small number of guys wanting real productive trips (so they can pick up more real productive trips) getting a resolution through makes perfect sense to me. Lots of things in a representation type of body are driven by very vocal and angry minorities. When the rest of us wake up to what has happened our choices are limited. Our choice today is to text your rep for memrat or a delay to get more member input.......in other words, we become the angry vocal body.
The CODs (I think we need to call them what they are going to be called - SDP) don't effect me and I'll vote with you guys if given a chance, but here is why they strike me as "odd" and not for us. No, I don't think they are anymore unsafe that a lot of the other crazy back of the clock stuff we do......But........we all worked hard to get to "the majors". I like Delta (better than NWA) because it's a classier act. The company wants the efficiencies that NWA or RJ world has as we pick up more and more of the old RJ type flying, fair enough........but no. That's not who we are, we're older and have paid our dues.
At the majors, there's a dress code (name the movie reference for a beer - think baseball)

I think it speaks to the power of this forum. I lurk here frequently when something like a TA discussion is going on. It is the only place I know to get up to date info.
It also motivated me to email my reps that I would reject the TA because of the CDOs. Apparently the squeaky wheels were heard.

I don't know who any of you "lurkers" are who did that, but --
raise a glass tonight and congratulate yourselves.
This was a very good day for the Delta pilots.

Good job on killing the COD. No half fuzzed-out jockey moving my old boney *** about, is a good thing....Memory rat lives!
