To disgruntled new guys, all any of us can say, is that operationally, things are as good here as they’ve ever been. Morale is generally high, we are paid well, and will shortly be paid a good bit more. If our union dysfunction is causing you that much heartburn… I think you might want to develop a thicker skin. This truly is about as good as things get, so if you can’t be happy now… I’m not sure what to tell you. The good news about being a Delta pilot, is that whatever you think about the company from the outside, four months in, you will be absolutely certain that you are a part of the best aviation institution that has ever existed. All kidding aside, it’s a great airline, but I don’t really think it would be worth jumping ship, unless it would be a huge increase in quality of life geographically. |
I completely agree. No time like the present to make large gains. I think my confusion is that you can be very grateful for how things are and still apply pressure to make things better. It seems like some people need to make themselves angry and indignant in order to feel comfortable Arguing for improvements. Maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t being happy at work and doing our best to apply our leverage are mutually exclusive.
Our union drama is certainly a bit embarrassing, but it will get sorted out, and hopefully we will be stronger for it, as Delta has shown us as possible. All I can do is write my rep and then vote on whatever is put in front of me. in the meantime, I will be grateful for the good times that we have |
I agree 100% with you, as well. I think the vast majority of people aren't comfortable with conflict, so maybe they need to feel that way to be ready to do something about it? Really good points, thanks!

F/O I just flew with is leaving for DAL as well, although he only got hired here a few months ago, so not much to lose.

whoever the hell you are, you’ve shown yourself to be nothing but a troll on every thread in which you participate . Rickair, can we just ban this idiot already? He/she/they contribute nothing of value, and have way too much time in their mom’s basement.

Polling everyone is free.
Telephone polling is so 1960s. ALPA wastes tens of millions on phone polling. ALPA insiders love it and defend it. They craft the questions to elicit the responses they desire. Bring resolutions to demand they poll everyone. |
