Alright then. Maybe we'll get a drink one of these days.


Probably not though

Because we are all professional pilots and we should look as professional as we possibly can in the public eye.

You look good, you fly good.

Right. Do a little research about why we particularly shouldn't be wearing hats at 9E right now, then get back to me.

The millennials are the ones WEARING the hat. I'm Atlanta it goes like this

Under 30 -wearing the hat
30-45 - half and half
45-1000 - (literally could not care either way)

My obviously scientific observations not withstanding, there's nothing entitled about trying to make contract improvements. If that's the case, there are a lot of "entitled" people at UAL/DL who think they deserve more money.

I've spent a lot of time in Atlanta lately and have seen the same. There's a lot of young Atlanta wearing the hat. I don't see it to the same degree in NYC or Detroit.

Since when does hat = professionalism? I think the MEC has made it pretty clear why no 9E pilot should be wearing the hat right now.

When the MEC starts throwing people out for it and a few folks realize you cannot have a job at 9E if you are not in the union, then maybe the rest of the "but I like to wear the hat" crowd will get on the program...

Not every pilot wants to go to Delta. Not every pilot is concerned about their career progression whether it be to Delta or some other airline. Come to work in uniform, look professional, do your job, and go home. It's that simple. The rest is just extra noise that some don't care to be involved with.

With that being said. Do I agree with "Propel"? Absolutely NOT. I think everyone with half a brain can understand how and why "Propel" is bad for us, maybe even the Propel people. That's why they're trying to lay as low as possible..

Since when? We have pilots here who are non-members, but they are very few in number. Yes, they pay dues, but they're non-members of the union.
