There is of course now a need for a social media coordinator.

Wonder what his starting salary is?

Guys, gals:

There have been no posts deleted. There will be no posts deleted unless the Terms of Service are violated.

There is no DALPA message control (or DPA message control) here, and never will be. There are enough moderators from varying viewpoints that it cancels out.

Now can we please move on with it and cut out the conspiritorial pointing at each other? How freaking mind numbing!

Underboob.

If that's all true, would you please post this mythical underbutt that I somehow overlooked?

As for trading PS for pay, I hate to admit I actually agree with Jerry on this one. My reasoning is much different from his though.

Management wants/needs the flexibility to reduce costs when revenues turn south which they inevitably do in this industry. So, tying a portion of pilot costs to profit sharing means they might pay more than they want in good times, but get to pay less in bad times. And in the long run, I think we end up with more pay with a profit sharing component because of that. They can't argue they can't afford the profit sharing piece, because by definition, it's coming out of profits. And they can keep our hourly rate in line with the competition, but if Delta does well, we can all benefit from that.

I say, don't touch it. And I've been around long enough to fully realize this economic cycle will end, and our PS will dry up in the coming years; but I'm still OK with that.

Just guessing, but page 16272 comes to mind.:)

Did you bookmark that or something? :)

And I tried and tried and couldn't find where a post of PD's got deleted. I can see all deleted posts, so if one was deleted, it was reinstated.

Eitherway, hopefully we can move on from that miserable food fight and maybe take bets on how junior A goes on this beastly bid. :)

I'll say mid 9000s.
