Three and a half years to get an ISL, the SFO MOU, the delay for a year after the SLI to do anything about rebalancing, etc...

Yup.
I wasn't around for the buffoonery 2010-2012, but not starting the displacements last September boggles the mind. Wasting training assets to train a bunch of Capts way out of seniority, only to bump them, all-the-while paying the equivalent of 700-1000 pilots on the former blue team to sit around and not work? I don't get it.
It is not just salary. Training costs, bumping costs (paid moves, PS passes, etc). This will be dragged out 2 years longer than if they had started the bumping last year.
Obviously, management doesn't either.
