"The union wants pay scales restored to the levels they were after the 2004 deal following a certain period, Lewis said. He didn't specify the period."


READ THAT AGAIN BUCKAROO. AFTER THE 2004 DEAL.(after we gave $1 billion a year) You seemed to oversee this part. That is the same as asking for our last 14% pay cut back that we just handed them Dec 15th of 2005. We actually have a pre-bankruptcy letter signed by Grinstein that stated if we go to bankruptcy, they would not ask for X X X X etc. He also said "Do it once, do it right." Remember that? Does that mean we are back on the gravy train? No. You also seemed to forget the other part I also posted with that....about the 85% RASM we are getting compared to other Majors. We charge less, but the new guy incharge of revenue management said we will reclaim some of that lost $2.5 BILLION a year in 2006 and 2007. So, do you think we could have some of the 47% pay cut we have taken back when times are better? We didn't say right now, we said at a later date? Is that hard to do when your revenue guy says we will reclaim a bunch of the money we are losing? What about the huge pension default and what that will mean to DL's bottom line? They will save $800 or more million a year. Can we get a little credit for that? United pilots did. And what is that "certain period" they are talking about? I do think any of us think we will get back to those wages anytime soon. How about in 10 years? It is funny the company guy never gave a date. I would like to have those huge buck again too, someday. AND BUCKAROO, I WANT AN APOLOGY.

Bye Bye--General Lee

"They will save $800 or more million a year. Can we get a little credit for that? United pilots did."

General - That statement sounds eerily familiar- a little like "United +1%"
You DALPA guys just will never learn.

To even bring up a return to 2004 levels of pay at ANY POINT in the future is ludacris, given our current situation. For cryin out loud, General, we're on the precipice of Chapter 7, and you guys are already asking for a raise. Get a grip!!!

You are an idiot. How can it be a raise when it was just an additional pay cut? Good try Leo Mullin. And, we can NEVER expect a raise again, even in an up cycle? That sounds great. ANY POINT, eh? Never? You are sooo cool.

Bye Bye--General Lee

Actually, the flight kit sticker never said United + 1%. It just said United Plus, but you seem like the type of guy that never lets the facts get in the way of your rhetoric, so never mind.

Never Mind General,
Just go ahead and burn it down. As a real estate speculator, I can't wait to pick up those Peachtree City mini-mansions on the courthouse steps for pennies on the dollar!
 
Where does the line outside the tool shed start for laying on the whippin's to Cosmothetoolshed?
