It's good to see. I've been saying for a long time that either these corporations will figure out how to change themselves for the better or they will either be put out of business or the government will have to start mandating ways to fix them.... and hopefully it's sinking in that those last 2 options aren't good for anybody.

I really wish some of these liberal/socialist groups could see something good in what companies like Delta do, and promote it as a role model for other businesses. Instead of hate, see the good.

A little compromise goes a long way to being supportive of both employer and employee and in situations like Delta it's win-win.


There is hope.
