Having your family's full time residence paid for by the pilot's dues seems like it would qualify as either bull ****, bull-**** or bull****. I'm not sure which one exactly though. Having the Delta pilots house your family for you is something I have never heard of happening since........ever.
How nice are these "apartments" maybe I can "volunteer" for a committee job.

If they are nice enough to entice a family move when the intent was temporary housing, we have other issues.

Tom Brielmann is looking for free room and board, and that is simply indefensible. No one on FPL should gain or suffer anything that wouldn't happen to any line pilot.
Prove this.

I think you would be a good point man on this allegation. If this is true, I will personally jump up and down on our new C66 reps' desks and blow up their phones until he gets his ass out of the apartment. If that doesn't work, I will fill out a DPA card. (Of course Timmy says it dies in the spring, so there's that)

Uh, actually it [DPA] died on 01 Dec 16. And zombies come back to life only on TV. I don't see a DPA resurrection ever.

Chit Chat is an echo chamber for DPA zealots. They drove civii discourse and reasoned debate off those boards years ago.

Timmy said it would die before contract 2012 also. Why would his word be any better this Time?

No kidding. I lurk there, and some of the posts there are really pathetic.

Nobody cares. Five guys just voted themselves into the administration, and the membership hits the snooze bar. I hope everyone remembers this moment five years from now.

Time for a break.

Seriously man. Relax. From what you just said, it seems to have been rectified. That's good. Like the guy that discovered the 9:45 end around that the company was trying, we need guys that like (apparently) looking into the minutiae for things like this. I am personally not interested in looking for these kinds of things, and I'll betcha there are probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 13,000 other pilots that aren't either. So for bringing this to light, I say good on ya. But it seems to be a dead issue. So stop flogging deceased equine for awhile.
