I would say that first, again, sorry you feel Richard is a X or XII or whatever number of kings they are on now.

Second. What else can you do but talk to your reps? If you are doing that that is what the process is. This is a Republic, of sorts, and they are our not-beholden-to-lobbyists-except-us representatives.

To say I don't advocate vocal interaction with reps is to not read my posts. But I know if it's raining it's hard to read my phone and curse the sky simultaneously.

Dalpa operatives seem to have regrouped and received their talking points after finding themselves flat-footed.

Note that none of them refute the reports of bad news; rather, they cram concessions and discourage discourse.

It's clear Dalpa's mindset hasn't changed since C12...but the pilot group's has.

Purple, purple, purple. Why for art thou so pedantic?


Don't answer that. Maybe a Kyiv trip? I hear it's lovely in the springtime. Either way best to you and all of us in what I have been told is the worst TA in a long history of terrible deals.

Does the language in our contract, regarding PS, effect the PS of all delta employees?

You've been answered in the other thread

It seems as though the threads are visited by different people so I wanted to ask both groups.

Do you have a notebook with all these gems written down? Do you hate life? Do you even have a life? Sheesh.

NO. Just wondering if our union in a roundabout way represents all nonunion employees.

I know I am going to regret this, but:

That's an interesting theory, but nothing more.

Again, an interesting theory and since it fits your agenda it can't be anything BUT the truth.

Not really, and while we are here, define "rushed".
