I'm guessing he does not discuss the incessant closed doors begging sessions where airlines are going to extort tens of billions of dollars from lawmakers because they're too big to fail. That and just fucking over employees is of course the real way they have dealt with this.

Delta has already send email to its employees saying they are not being laid off. With the exception of pilots who are still working with their union and Delta, Delta flight attendants and ground employees would NOT be layoff. I know this because I am a delta ground employee. #deltaproud

Many employees "volunteered to take months of unpaid leave" & 17K people took early retirement... 2K pilots are at risk of getting furloughed on Oct 1st? The culture has definitely been revealed ☕️

The issue with the pilots is their union. In Delta, other areas don’t have a union which makes it easier for management to speak directly with us, the employees and make decisions.
