Some Delta workers are worried about the number of Northwest executives and officers given leadership positions in the post-merger airline.

A representative of one of the work groups spelled out these concerns in a letter he e-mailed to employees earlier this month. But the representative also staunchly defended the leadership selections and urged employees to keep an open mind."

You mean Joe Piller of the Delta Board Council, that represents 10% of the non-contract employees, that watched as the DL pilots received an industry leading contract in 2000(for not striking), as the group he represents received a step-increase pay freeze? The same Joe Piller of the Delta Board Council, that represents 10% of the non-contract employees, that watched as the DL mechanics received an 18% pay increase in 2002 (for remaining nonunion), while the 10% of the non-contract employees he represents remained on the step-increase pay freeze? The same Joe Piller of the Delta Board Council, that represents 10% of the non-contract employees, watched as their market based pay minimum salary requirement be reduced by 19% in 2005?
The 10% of the non-contract employees he represents didn't receive a salary step-increase from July 2001 to July 2007....and HE'S WORRIED?
Joe Piller represents no one and 99% of the employees he represents don't even know him. I don't blame DL for not responding to his letter. He is nobody. Let him write.

Duly noted. My bad...I, for some reason, thought as long as a link was provided it was ok to paste the entire story. I've learned something for the New Year! 🙂
