I have some friends who worked for Doug in PHX that were eligible for food stamps.

Why do the Delta agents have to wake up? Doug stated that the highest payscale of each work group will be the pay scale for that work group. Even the 19% pay cut the ground workers took at delta i think they are still getting paid better than both the us airways east employees and the us airways west employees.
Once you are an employee at will and the deal is done all that could change like US has seen over and over again. This scares the hell out of me with these revolving door upper management. Here is what the agents contract is for increases in the future
The pay increases that apply to all classifications are:
1/1/2009 3.0% increase
1/1/2010 4.0% increase
1/1/2011 4.0% increase
1/1/2012 2.0% increase

5.Holiday premium pay
6.Holiday option II and pay

Delta employees need to watch out for that BS alliance between the Teamsters and the CWA that feeds dues money into the coffers of both unions while allowing one group to make far far less than the other.
There is a 20 month transition period that has all ready began and April 2006 to bring the America West agents at top of scale with a $5.00 a hour increase. Meanwhile IAM and gang is being stall by America West upper management with their agreement. The inside agent would be going thru the same making between $6.00 -$13.00 dollars an hour wile management stalls if a IBT/CWA transition agreement was not reach

I worked with a lot of people who collected assistance at WN as ramp agents back in the mid ninties.
Also, I remember seeing a memo about not wearing your uniform to the blood bank where you give plasma. After my first year at WN I was starting to think that Ramon Noodles was a food group.
I doubt it's changed much now adjusted for inflation.
So don't throw stones, except for the benifits the pay sucks starting out.
