Sick leave written by...DALPA?
From chitchat:
I don't have independent confirmation.
But I wouldn't be in the least shocked if that's true.
*cue sailingfun to say something pertaining to this... about which he knows nothing*
I've been asking questions about our SL In the TA. For instance, if this is what we ended up with, what was the company's first offer? Well, it appears there was no first offer so to speak. Our SPC head [Harwood], along with Mike Hanson, actually wrote the SL policy themselves ( they may have had others chime in). Oh, they knew that the Company wanted something done, but the company never came to us with a formal proposal! Our SPC actually wrote the new policy. To make it worse, we did all the concessions before we actually talked money. All at the direction of the SPC.
But I wouldn't be in the least shocked if that's true.

During the road show and q&a afterward, it was quite clear that the TA was sent out without the sick leave change language and implementation methodology even being finalized. Kind of like we have to vote it in to find out what's in it.
I don't want to burn the house down. I want to clean the house out. I don't have any faith in my union, who I paid 6 grand to last year, to do anything for me...at all...nothing.
That has got to change and the sooner the better.
If the house can't be cleaned, I see no other option, but to move to a different house. And I really, really don't want to move.

Again, focus is pay,pay,and pay... there is a value to quality of life. Just cannot survey that as easy as a pay number. It's too variable an equation.

Not bad for a copilot job. I got a kick out of one post from a pilot at another airline telling us it was great we voted it down and a senior Captain should make 350 to 400k. Clearly he did not know that senior and not so senior Captains at Delta can and are making that now and lots of copilots are exceeding 300k.
