Yep,
I flew with a "senior" capt last week....and the positon put forth was that it was unfair that the line she had only paid 68CH which is the same as a reserve guy. The obvious solution to her was to just furlough the bottom 3-400 guys so we could go back to ops normal. She asked if she was wrong to think that way,
and I said YES

I've never really understood folks working themselves to death the last 5 years for their high 5. Guess I've always thought save an extra 1 percent in the early days so I can take it easier as retirement approaches. Last thing I want to be doing is spending 20 days a month working for FedEx during my last 5 years.
And I sure do love taking my vacation. Nothing better than only working 1 or 2 days a month for a full months pay.

These same individuals look at you like you're crazy if you tell them retro was a bad thing to push for.

OK, we all know there is an economic slow down. But what does that have to do with us? I will ask again, are there any cities we serviced in 2006 that we are not servicing today? Is the amount of freight we ship today statistically <,>, or = to what we shipped in 2006. Knowing the answer I must ask why are our BLGs already down 10% on their way to 25%.
The reason this is important is we can't fool ourselves. The last contract and the optimizer are responsible for our perceived overmanning. Unless we admit that we will make the same mistakes on the next contract. Don't let the union or company get away with blaming the economy.
