Am glad that TK is not full of senior dudes that are only there for the fat pay check and free hotel rooms.
I understand that. I also bid entirely for quality of life. I will work only 85 days this year at my current rate but I would much rather make my 12 year pay than 9.
Also I'm sorry but your statement about them not caring about the money obviously doesn't hold water given they were the ones suing to take a larger percentage of the backpay tranche.
At CAL it wasn't all senior guys bidding it for the money. But, it was a highly rewarded position. I just find it odd that the UAL guys rolled so easy on the pay, it is obviously deserved.
