Dear Johnso,

I tossed a small grenade and went flying. Looks like you and 80 went toe to toe for a bit. Sorry dude!

. Guess that's why I usually just post boobs n jokes.

No biggie hoserpilot. I didn't take offense. If we don't agree on Delta stuff, I'm always up for talking NHL & beer.

Whatever it is, it would only be polite to help her look.

No matter how hard I try, I can't put myself in your, GunshipGuy, or daldude's shoes. I can't pretend to know how you guys feel. That being said your frustration IMO is justified. All I can do to help you guys, is vote down anything I feel will further stagnate our careers. I intend to do nothing less.

That said, SD's words may have gained that extra 12% to put the contract over the top. That said, at some point you just have to stop believing anything coming from management. It is what it is.

Perhaps his words did gain that extra 12%. I'm not sure that we will ever know. As I said before, I am not defending his statement. Just like you said, at some point you just have to stop believing anything coming from management. It's sad, but true.

And the secrets, withheld info, inside deals and politicking just plain disgusting.

Amen. I'm with you on that. Unfortunately I don't think we can ever get this, regardless of our representation.

Thanks for the cordial discussion.
