There were 3 guys in My new hire class who were over 50 when they got hired here. When they reached 60 they only had 5-6 yeats worth of B fund money since we had recently got our 1st contract. They only had 9-10 years FedeX longevity, so they went to the back seat to keep getting another 2% per year...............wouldn't you do that?
Redeye,
You raise some very valid points. We all have our own reasons for retiring at 60 or not. We all don't look at life the same way. Can't really say what I'd do if I only had 9-10 years here. I still think very little good will come from this rule change, and there is potential for a lot of bad stuff to come out of it. I'll quit my bitchin for now and shut my pie hole. I guess I'll just have to wait another five years to fly with my favorate Captain everyday!
Jolly
