i must have missed the paradigm shift in america where it became ok to steal a worker's retirement and leave them with nothing and no time to do anything about it. it's definitely the norm today.

i notice that all airline executives seem to get theirs ok, though.

If they aren't gonna send my monthly stipend on 1 Oct; I bet the 200 guys waiting for their lump sums don't get their big check either. What a travestry. They are in the worst possible position early retired and no lump sum.

You can thank the Dem's for WTO and NAFTA... Creating a world economy... Trying to level the playing field... Which means your high standard of living is going to come down to match the rest of the 3rd world standards...

You can thank the Rep's for loving big busines and hating unions! They will put you in your place you Drizmoes! Now shut up and get back to work!

Until we get a party that actually give a turd about the "We The People" thing.... We are F'ed! Hang On!

I don't care what you call it.
Thats STEALING.

I learned that in the second grade.
Those SOB's need to be hung by their thumbs.
Then run the gauntlet of a pack of angry pilots
armored with just wooden Baseball bats.

Thats despicable. I for one feel sorry for those aviators at Delta.
We really need a national/global pilots union.

I bet if we as a collective airline pilot group took a week off from flying
they might get the message.

Friggen mgmt. A- holes

Watch the movie "Fight Club" several times & see if you get any ideas.
