Oh, and max out my 401k for me.
Remember the longer freezes will result in less pilots required in each category. Your career progression will slow significantly.

Less training, less seniority list instructors to give OE, less pilots required to cover the flying while others are in training.

Study the issue very deep. Talk to your reps about it.

IMO given all our rapidly increasing retirements, 9 fleets and 8 pilot bases, this concession could cost us over 1000 captain positions.
