Thank You DAL Pilots, Merry XMAS

"Perhaps you should spend as much time seeking employment as you do to crying wolf." I find this offensive!

I agree that the particular remark was uncalled for. It could be construed as "offensive" and that was NOT my intent. I apologize for offending you.

If you care to read my post again, I think you will see that while we may disagree as to the reasons for your furlough, I do appreciate your problems and sincerely wish that it had not happened to you. I also hope that you will find new employment or be quickly recalled. I think I said that repeatedly in many different ways.

Yes, I can appreciate the difficulty of conducting a job search in the current environment and wish that I had a way to help you, but that is not within my power. I can only wish you success and encourage you not to give up. There are jobs out there. Not many it is true, but some. I hope you'll get one and soon.

I want peace between us, and I have my hand out to anyone who cares to try to create peace with me.

I too want peace. However, peace at any price is not the answer. I'm willing to take your hand in friendship as a fellow airman and freely offer my own in return. If we all work together it is possible to achieve something better for all of us.

You are not the enemy Familymanok, but there are enemies within your ranks. Prudence indicates the need for caution. At the same time we must all accept a certain level of risk if we wish to return to a peaceful state. Surrender is not an option for either one of us. We must find common ground together. Peace cannot be achieved unilaterally. We must change the win/lose scenarios to win/win action. I'm more than willing to try.

I wish you the very best in the coming New Year. Things will get better.

Pax vobiscum,
Surplus1

Yea, you guys are right. Beer and this forum should not mix.

I read a story on this forum about a comair guy who said a Delta pilot shut his head in a door. Now I think we would have read about that in the paper, since that is assualt. I know there are stories on both sides. Many of them seem so far fetched.

I apologize(sp) for insinuating you we not truthful. I truly hope we can one day all work together towards the same goal.

You have to admit that after being furloughed for 14 months, with all the hiring going on at asa and comair. You might find it a little hard to be sympathetic for you guys as you upgrade and take delivery of new planes.

I know you guys have nothing to do with the furlough, hiring and getting new planes. But please stop alluding to the fact that your careers are being slowed by us.

Regards,

NYR


PS. I still think surplus is an A-hole. You sir are the cancer the ALPA founding fathers thought was cured. I am comforted by the thought you will never be a Delta pilot.

I have been treated fairly and professionally by every Delta pilot I have ever met. I do disagree with some of them, but they are not the problem. It's my union that needs to change it's tune. I wish you all good luck and happiness.
