By retirements alone, not accounting for growth, we will all be at majors in the next 5 years anyway.
The maximum change for the profit sharing would have been a reduction of 5.74%. The number could be less but not more. The pay raises and DC change brought the pay up 23.5% in the first 30 months. I doubt the thought of having to pay 5.74% more in profit sharing will weigh very heavy on managements mind.
