Why does it have to suck as bad as it does? Answer: It doesn't, and the union can fix that..

Oh, and it has already been paid for.

Doesn't mean we would have to go with that blended rate.

Not saying we would, just stating what they have.

Hey Guys fried my laptop yesterday, I spilled coffee in the keyboard. Lucky for me I'd bought an extended warrant. So being with a computer for three weeks was not going to cut it while it is getting repaired. So, I picked up a Motorola Xoom Tablet. Now I am trying to find the droid app that lets you download your I-Crew schedule info. Any ideas as to it's name? Thanks

Very gracious. Sounds like a great idea. Let's leave it here, and I will again state that I don't doubt your sincerity, your motivations, or intentions. We simply differ in our analysis of what's best.

Alright, so this is what I think about longevity pay vs the current system. I like... what? we're burring the hatchet. We never ever bury the hatchet!

If anything, we get in our tightest jeans and best western tops and throw them...



I'm on the far right by the way. That's 80 in red.

FWIW, those numbers have been independently verified. Of course that is today, and not if the situation gets worse.
Even IF that is true, it could change for the worse in a second as you correctly point out. These are people we're talking about...Delta people. Take all the risks you want with the property that you manage, but this risk taking with our people is unsat.
