So...according to my profit sharing check Delta thinks I'll make $14,100 this year. I am on new hire pay but that seems a bit low...

BTW, I'm a former Democrat, turned Republican, now Independent, if it matters. I'm pretty much as middle of the road as you can get. I've been extreme on both sides. Marched in protests against nuclear weapons during my college years, carried the nuclear football 18 years later. Flew in wars for commanders in chiefs I respected, and some I didn't.
I was raised as the son of an Air Force officer from a family of Democrats. I was completely unaffected as a military pilot until my White House assignment. You'll get the gist.
Now, I stand for our military and the threats we face. And our industry. Politics bores the **** out of me. I'm very sensitive to the outcomes however.

Precisely. Which is why you should, if you choose, read my books chronologically.

We will have a great discussion. I'll buy the beer.

I don't think that's it either, because none of that shows up in trip coverage. ATL had some reserve trip coverage today, but none of them show up as out of base pilots. They had 1 oob WS, and the rest covered by ATL pilots. NY had only 1 reserve trip today. ATL/DTW/MSP all have reserves available, so why would they DH NY pilots to any of those places to cover trips? But if what you are saying is correct, then line holders are being held hostage to capped reserve days for no good reason.

The methodology is explained on the website. It took your Jan - Jun income, doubled it, then paid 5%. For new hires or anyone else with lopsidedly low income though June, this makes for a small payment. After the 75% to the 401(k) and taxes, I netted $16.94. Told the wife I'll pick up the movie tickets for our date night, but popcorn's on her....

The choices offered within many question on the survey are troubling. Too many choices to move the wrong direction with fewer to restrict more productivity for example. Less flying, more pay should be the goal. We don't set goals in this union however.
