Dalpa operatives seem to have regrouped and received their talking points after finding themselves flat-footed.

Note that none of them refute the reports of bad news; rather, they cram concessions and discourage discourse.

It's clear Dalpa's mindset hasn't changed since C12...but the pilot group's has.

Second. What else can you do but talk to your reps? If you are doing that that is what the process is. This is a Republic, of sorts, and they are our not-beholden-to-lobbyists-except-us representatives.

To say I don't advocate vocal interaction with reps is to not read my posts. But I know if it's raining it's hard to read my phone and curse the sky simultaneously.
That's not rain bro.

Purple, purple, purple. Why for art thou so pedantic?


Don't answer that. Maybe a Kyiv trip? I hear it's lovely in the springtime. Either way best to you and all of us in what I have been told is the worst TA in a long history of terrible deals.

Does the language in our contract, regarding PS, effect the PS of all delta employees?

It seems as though the threads are visited by different people so I wanted to ask both groups.

Do you have a notebook with all these gems written down? Do you hate life? Do you even have a life? Sheesh.

NO. Just wondering if our union in a roundabout way represents all nonunion employees.

I know I am going to regret this, but:

That's an interesting theory, but nothing more.

Again, an interesting theory and since it fits your agenda it can't be anything BUT the truth.

Not really, and while we are here, define "rushed".

Rushed is done at the next meeting right on management's timeline.

We must hurry and reduce profit sharing.

We must hurry and add more 76 seat Jets at DCI.

We must hurry and degrade our sick leave.

We must hurry and grant staffing concessions.

Hurry! Before it's too late!

I'm sure if Richard were MEC chairman he would do the same thing.
