There are those that hate to see anything going to Endeavor. I was in the Jumpseat once and the FO started talking to me about our retention bonus. The Captain perks up and gets steaming mad. Says, I wasn’t aware of it. But that $h!ts gotta stop. That’s coming straight out of our profit sharing.
Another time I had a very senior captain in comfort plus right behind me being very vocal about the fact I was given a comfort plus seat. I guess according to him maybe I was supposed to be in the lav or at least much closer to it as an OAL employee. I feel that the majority of them over there are pretty decent. Unfortunately, the few crotchety ones can make some waves

Now that the SSP has tapered off how many are still going to Delta? Will there be anywhere to see numbers on that like the union emails? It's going to be frustrating if the only source of info is somebody on the line saying that they heard in recurrent we sent 25 to Delta last month.

1) As a group, we'd eat our own young as long as we get ours...
2) As a group we don't understand business... there's no way Delta would be paying bonuses if they didn't have to to staff airplanes... and staffing those airplanes at half or a third the cost helps that Delta pilot's profit sharing. Delta isn't stupid, they're running a business to maximize profits...
There are exceptions to both of the above on an individual level but generally I've found those to be true.
Be the change you want to see in the world I guess.

Just wanted to throw this out there:
I started upgrade training, then there were sim issues and I have been delayed for over a month.
One of the pilots in my class talked with ALPA and they talked to the company and said AS LONG AS YOU'RE STILL CURRENT AND YOU ARE UPGRADING ON THE SAME PLANE it was OK to pick up open time as an FO during the delay.
I've heard from almost EVERYONE that this isn't allowed, but if both the company and the union say it's ok, I say ok too.

Crew Sked
Changes their minds daily. Depends on whom you talk to on any given day. The new contract is weighted toward the company. The new pay rates are good but the scheduling section in terrible. It is at the whim of Crew Sked wether to approve or deny requests.

Yes based on the airport closest to your home of record. Some other guys said something about 40 or 50 miles. That’s for MSP training only whether you get a hotel or not. I think.
