It cost us precious negotiating capital, your money, to turn a bad deal into a good deal so that nobody got "stuck" with it.
So now let's just give it all back? Is that what this is about? Then why did we work so hard for this QOL improvement to begin with? If it affects such a small % of pilots, as you say, then leave it alone.
For once I see both sides of this argument. I just hope I'm not forced (beyond my bidding) to become a Delta FO for the 3rd time in my career. Actually, if it pays well with good QOL, I'll fly anything in any seat.
