Not when you consider the comments of the person it was aimed at. It was well deserved!

People in this camp live in a fantasy world . .and don’t deserve a ‘professional’ response. They are dragging down the industry and take pot shots at ‘union’ advocates, who are only trying to make a better life for everyone.

 

Sky high ( or LOW IMHO) you are the one that keeps whining about why he quit the industry, because of low pay.............................Us Professionals are simply trying to defend the industry and our carriers........nothing more.

Maybe you need to look at what the current pay scales of NWA and DAL............and what DAL MGT is demanding!..................Fantasy??

Your simply a hypocrit with a chip his shoulder.

 

I am currently at the regional level, and love to fly every chance i get. This doesnt mean that I will work for free though.

Staying open minded to everyones thoughts are important. On one hand I can understand guys at US and other carriers not wanting to strike because of fear of lossing there job all together. You have to look out for your family and well being.

But God damn I love you Delta guys for what your doing, i wish everyone saw the big picture. I think its more than money, these ********* bean counters with there ivy league education want to push pilots around for their ****ups. People like that are always the first to blame somebody else and have no loyalty. Just think if all the airlines would stand up to this crap, people will always need to fly and the real reason for all are problems is not a lack of costumers, its pilots with little character allowing managment and LCC to run this industry into the ground.

Come on, we have all worked so hard to get are ratings, a degree, living on almost nothing the first year at a regional and getting stressed out for that next checkride or PC. I would reather lose all that Ive worked for then get paid the wage of a city bus driver. We need to take a stand before its to late.

I want you Delta guys to know how proud you make me and I know there are thousands of other pilots who feel the same way.

 

Hey Sky,when you rejoin our ranks,and I hope you do, then spread all the whine,and woe you want,its a free country,but right now its just starting to sound like sour grapes.

 

It's a high stakes time in this business and emotions run high obviously. My take on remlap's comment G-Dog is that he doesn't appreciate having HIS contract and HIS decisions criticized by outside critics - particularly by ignorant folks like sarcasticignorant - It's their deal not ours. Don't take his response to sarcastic too personal. Sarcastic deserved it and more. Everyone is aware that the decisions made by the Delta pilots will affect others but very few of us in this business are immune to the effects of others decisions. Do your part to make YOUR contract what you want it to be but let the Delta guys work through their tough dilemma without having to hear from guys like sarcasticignorant or all about SkyHigh's Zen Fatalism. The Delta pilots are fighting a noble cause that will benefit us all. Give them support not grief!

 

Hear, Hear..................

 

AMEN, Brother !

 

All the Delta guys have my vote, you guys have the balls that I wish many at US Airways had.

 

Easy there buddy, running a little low on ritalin are ya? Are you one of those guys that will tell me with a straight face that "when a company makes a profit it is because of the management team, and when a company is losing money it is because of labor"? I thought so.

From your reasoning only about 10 people in any corporation deserve to make any money; the CEO, COO, CFO and their closest managers. If that is how you truly feel, you picked the wrong career. You should be one of those guys, as a matter of fact it is not too late yet, go back to school and get your ******* degree and sign up. I am sure there would be room for more psychopaths like you in Americas corporations.

I, for one, don't need you to preach capitalism to me! I know what capitalism is about; the airlines want a skill, I have it, they pay the price we (unions) set. That is capitalism dillhole! You need to start thinking like a capitalist. You are the one thinking like a communist. A capitalist considers what's in it for him without killing off the corporation (much like a successful virus or parasite). A communist considers what's best for the collective (corporation) without much regard for him/herself. As a capitalist it is your duty to charge a corporation for your services. Do it!
