It may be too late to start updates, but in the deltafa.org spirit of
procrastination, we have decided to start it now. Plus, we do not
feel like writing anymore articles this close to Freaky Friday when they
count the ballots.
We notice that some of our flight attendants are starting to get a
little tense in all of this pre-counting suspense. After all, are we soon
to be card carrying members of the AFA, or are we going to continue to
move forward with our non union status?
Deltafa.org thinks that this election is going to be close. We could be
wrong, but we do not think that the AFA has the necessary votes. Our
prediction is the AFA will get the support of 40% We would like this
number to be lower. A low number may keep the AFA away for a longer period
of time as they try to heal the hangover that we have given them.
Let’s remember that this has been a long and expensive campaign for the
AFA. The Delta flight attendants have been frustrating for the AFA. It is
not because of company interference. It is because Delta flight attendants
are educated, strong- willed and not easily swayed by emotional appeals.

Some interesting news items related to the rather narcissistic
Deltafa.org.
| If you have sent mail to our Union City
Post Office Box, we ask that you resend it if possible. The post
office just informed us that someone else had a key to our box and was
cleaning it out. This may explain why the local Dairy Queen ranks
number one in the mail received category. However, we have cleared up
this problem, and think that we can get your mail now. We prefer mail
containing gifts of Reese’s Cups. In all fairness, this problem is
unrelated to the AFA. However, we wish that they would send us Reese’s
Cups. |
| Speaking of the AFA, we were looking through our January web access logs
last week. Do you know who was Number 1 in the kilobytes transferred
category? It was the AFA Headquarters in Washington D.C. (Hi, Y’all)
They even surpassed the Deltafa.org webmaster who is constantly
uploading new information and correcting our typo’s. Note: The AFA
is 66.7.7.140
and Fingerhut (A Labor PR
Firm) hostname is 209-9-178-147.sdsl.cais.net
