Might have been able to keep everthing if we didn't have to compete with the lowest compensated employees in the industry. Too many out there were willing to do the job at half of what DL pilots negotiated.
Bingo!! We have a winner.

Really? Did I say something that wasn't true? Do you have anything more specific to support your opinion?You disgust me.

How can "Bretheren" and "DOH" mutually coexist? Hmmm?Nope! Just my opinion of your talk. By the way thanks for showing up on the 16th of Nov. to support your bretheren... Oh! Wait you couldn't make it because you said you only had 3 days off. Thanks.
Heavy, I think the point people are trying to make about the General is that he seems to be brainwashed that DL cannot and never will do wrong. He loves who he works for, and he defends them to a fault, that's fine. If he would just be willing to concede once in a while that his management team and/or union makes mistakes, he would probably be more effective.
True, shutting down the airline might cost pilots more than giving in to management's demands---but the CREDIBLE THREAT of doing so might avoid both bad alternatives. At least, that's the theory on which our national defense policy was based during the Cold War. The tough thing is, you really have to be willing to pull the trigger, or your bluff will be seen through; and if you truly believe that "management will always win in the end", they always will.

Having a hard time adjusting to the realities of the marketplace, are we? Here's a newsflash, Lt. You're not competing with the lowest compensated employees of the industry,per se. You are competing in a deregulated enviroment where free market forces apply. And unfortunatly the passengers that make up our "market" don't want to pay anymore than $500 for their airline ticket. I don't like the fact anymore than you do, but unfortunatley it
is where we all are today,like it or not.

Can you show me where since the advent of deregulation management didn't win in one form or another?
