Since we’re not hiring, doesn't that mean its all a wash?

Yep, when you park those wide body planes with more FO's than Capts and replace them with 717's and 737's, you need more Capts. That's good if you're high enough up the seniority list to hold it, but for those of us in the bottom 1/3, it will be another slide backwards as they displace off the 767 and 320 and it cascades down to the 717/DC9 right seats.

DAL Options | Delta Air Lines Inc. (New) Comm Stock - Yahoo! Finance
At the end of Dec and after the VA announcement, DAL was trading just above 9.50 and the Dec '12 10 calls were .40. The stock is now 11.8 with the same calls sitting at 1.8. With the positive news, I decided to have some fun.

As Airtran has their seats arranged (with a premium cabin) they seat 117 I think, while our DC-9-50 (all we fly now I think) seat 125.

I can tell also after flying out of mecca for a few months. The obvious differences is that most S wear their I'd on the lapel of the jacket, (I know that is what the fom says), tend to be much more proactive in the cockpit(ie: getting everything done before I arrive(appreciated) launch into checklists without being called(slow down, we get paid by the min) signing in at the hotel, they take charge(usually handing me the key as I approach the desk(now if we could get separate sheets from the fa's like we had a Nwa), all in all good guys(hell, I bet I'd even enjoy flying with bucking or 80). One glaring similarity is the inner Blutarski that both sides have when I mention beer is on me(even the ones that mention they don't drink much) Cheers to all and happy festivus, merry Christmas, kwanza or whatever y'all celebrate. Here's to kicking some more industry ass next year.
You sure about that? I can tell within about 30 minutes of leaving the gate where a pilot was pre-merger.
And your assertions about what DALPA did or didn't want was not a view shared about their position in the school house. So you might want to do a bit better job communicating.
So long, ALPA boy.
