Furthermore, 2 out of 3 of the current members of the NC were on the C2012 committee. You assigned a motive with no basis in fact.
Furthermore, the others you allude to resigned from their positions, two of them were elected to other positions and another was asked to come back and help KR.

Just got bit by the "*" rotation trip removal feature.
Okay, rant over.
Schedule survey to come. I hope folks read the contract comparisons.

Don't listen to that nonsense man. Welcome to Delta.
We do have our share of guys here like Rather B Fishin who take it as a personal insult if you find fault with anything Delta or DALPA. The Delta contract does suck in some ways, but a few guys like Rather B Fishin get crabby when you actually say it out loud. Hoping for our new blood with a fresh set of eyes and stiffer backbones to help us get better. Look for me over in Tokyo when you get there and I'll buy you a beer. I'll be the guy with all the women that Rather B Fishin scared away.

Awesome.

Btw, have a SWA guy pitch in on their vacation too. Their value IS what it drops.

The insiders have made the deal to trade our profit sharing for hourly increases. We trade a dollar for 4 quarters and DALPA declares victory. Then the selling machine and another cost neutral jam down.
If we reduce profit sharing it is game over. C2015 will be a repeat of C2012 and completely cost neutral. If we can hold the line and keep profit sharing, we cannot fail.
The most important part of your survey is to protect profit sharing and move it off the table.
