Thanks for the input ark May. I'm so looking forward to your Chit Chat posts. First, you'll come out with vigor debating why we should not vote for TA15, version 2. You'll go on for a few weeks, making about 100 posts to stir up the group. But alas, just a short time later...your mood and opinion will make a 180. Then I'll have to read thru around 100 posts, the first 30 of which refute your previous 100 posts, the last 70 telling us why we should vote yes, selling QOL provisions of our PWA in order to buy what will be about industry standard pay rates, all of that before oil goes to 212$ a barrel, and the next Black Swan rains down upon us! Can't wait to read your 200 posts, I need something to kill time during my 30 hour layovers!

It would be nice if the sales jobs ceased. Case in point: UPS comparison. The BEST light Delta can be painted in to compare to a UPS contract is to have a new hire vs. new hire scenario. And that's all the video compared. Why the absence of a career comparison for a dead zoner? ...because the comparison SUCKS! And guess how many TA voters are new hires? None. Last I heard, there were 8,000 dead zoners. THEIR UPS comparison is non-existent. It is maddening how ignorant DALPA believes its membership to be.

Just for FYI. The upgrade at UPS now is 15 years. So what is it at DL? 3? 5? So one will make much more in Hourly by being a Captain 10 years earlier than at UPS. That's huge. And the 40K Profit sharing checks equate to $45 an hour bonus on top of one's current hourly rate.

And I still wouldn't be surprised to see off the street left seat hires on the CS200s. I could be wrong, but I would not be surprised if it did happen
