If you (pilots at companies w/ this poor practice) are out there JS and or commuting on other airlines without lobbying your company to change, then you are essentially pissing on my leg while patting me on the back.
The key words are IF and WITHOUT.
Also, if you're going to say the Delta pilots are pissing on your leg, why make no mention of American, Contiental (not CoEx, but mainline) and all the other airlines that have this policy?
see portion of above quote in parenthesis
and the one below
Delta (and others that have a policy like theirs)
I know this is tiny in the big picture.
