What I see from you isn't "quick" movement, it's a bowel movement.
wow you are extremely witty today. child

For some it’s at the beginning. For some it’s at the end. Some it’s middle of the career. Despite your insistence, not everyone’s career started in the last 2 years.

Also, not everyone is interested in being on weekend reserve for the next 5-10 years even if it's for way more money. Many of us are waiting for the senior half the list to move from right to left so we can better control our QOL.

The majority of our list started in the last 7 though.

Right? A small minority have had good timing, so far, so we should take the good fortune from them and everyone else to distribute it to the already very wealthy top 10%. You know. Because fair

if only you had done something to fix your own retirment predicament when you had the votes to do it...not once, not twice, but across three contract cycles. now you're trying to change the rules by begging elected officials to bail you out, while castigating the majority of the pilot group who have done nothing wrong other than to take a job at Delta, just like you did. Keep up the good work.

Exactly!
We should make probation pilots buy our meals! Lousy new hires. Who do they think they are being all low on the seniority list?

I have never said they do. You are the one that keeps saying that.
