When a delta contract won’t make you happy, there is not much that will.

I can't remember ever when we were close to the big 3 in pay rates. Certainly not in total compensation. Now close... close is another subjective term i suppose.

But earlier you argued that ASM's were not necessarily growth... Won't lift a finger to correct the record, but can't show up to support your union either.
You win, you go into the southerner irrational box of no longer credible.
Hope you can find time for the next picket if you're not too busy here on APC telling everyone how you feel.

Along with your posts of how smart you are and how you have called all of this and how dare people question you. Yeah I may be juicy joe and I still like jetblue and I have been wrong and right but you just come off as a total jerk sometimes. I’m sorry bluedriver I want to like you and I try to respect your posts but man you make it hard to do.
And this is why I took a month off these stupid forums

Just stop being a dick on here. And understand almost all of us are with you. You can’t take yes for a answer. What you fail to grasp is not everyone is going to use the same tattics or feel the same as you do.
This is like the true believer republicans or democrats it’s all or nothing. But there is so much in the middle. And while you are correct sometimes you also tilt things just as you accuse others of doing. Which is totally fine just don’t be shocked when you get push back.
