I'm sure DL's legal team would be good enough to be able to deal with one guy who basically has decided to waive his right as it appears.

Now why one would want to spend anymore time then they have to on regional FO pay when they have a mainline job waiting for them.... beyond me.
Delta but rather one of us. If Endeavor shorted you all a nickel you would be pi$$ed. But
Some pilot screws you out of $ and career advancement you
Don’t say nothing. Pathetic

Union or company.
Union or company.
You came to this company under a DGI with no contractual or company guarantee. I might add when you came here it was still called the GIP, remember that? The union can't hold them to a promise that isnt defined. If the DGI is amended to a tour of the Delta museum in ATL and a swift kick in the posterior theyve checkmarked that item off the contract.

To all:
The sooner our pilot group understands that they made a choice coming here, there's a reality to that choice, the happier the pilot group will be. If no one shows up for new hire class it might change, or if enough people leave all at once it might change.
The pretending the DGI is anything meaningful, is embarasing and I'm sick of it.
Everyone stop blaming the union, it makes you sound stupid and petty. It's not the unions fault they thought the GIP/DGI is/was a joke, and refused to waste a minute of negotating effort while our bankruptcy wages were still propped up by a bonus program. Of course, after months and sometimes YEARS you all figured out what the union and everyone here knew from the beginning, and you're mad at the union for it? Shaddyap!

No one is even eligible to participate yet. If you think 9e and Delta won’t honor it you’re crazy.
