And as you see here, I ONLY use those things for work related stuff...like using the APC forum to gather info on DL pubs emails! :D Do you have a landline at home? My accountant told me this past year that unless I had a primary phone line, I couldn't claim my cell phone. He suggested I buy a magic jack. Have you heard of this rule? |

Reserve is also not the junior senior issue its made out to be on this board. Its a junior in category issue which can apply to every pilot at the airline unless your seniority number is 2 digits.

Wow, you said what I have been trying to say but much more effectively. Please keep shouting this from the rooftops. We are about to get skunked on work rules, advancement and QOL if people don't wake up and realize the points you just made here. The folks who keep trying to minimize these points tend to be strongly associated with the inter union agenda pushers IMHO.
Jack, It is very easy to fall for this. Initially I also started to extrapolate my last few years forward under this NN, but the more I thought about it, spurred on from some good insight on this thread, my thoughts on this have topic have "evolved." Scoop :) |

anyone see the latest Delta Pappa Alpha video regarding the upcoming dues increases proposals. Pretty pathetic if it's indeed true. They want to assess dues on 401K contributions among other things.
This is from a group of experienced and knowledgeable former ALPA volunteers? This discussion was on the forums a few years back. Any forum lurker should remember it was debunked then as well. *Article IX, Section 4 - Income Exempt From Dues |

I will make a blanket statement with the full knowledge and understanding that I am tied to DAL:
If the TA takes the approach that it is our job to fix the companies looming training problem (due to retirements) by either longevity pay or extreme paybanding; promises of growth for lower pay increases (a B-scale by another name), growth of outsourcing, or any other "fix" the companies problem...I am a no. My point being, some on this forum have already made a decision on how they will vote, and we don't even have a TA yet. Seems premature to me. JMHO. |

You've just proved the point of other posters, that people routinely exaggerate their situation, then use those "facts" to complain about it. |
