I think most of them gave up caring, and I don't blame them a bit. That does NOT mean they are koolaid drinkers, or DPA guys either, they just don't give a fk anymore. I did just fly with a super senior Cap (less than #50) who had less than a year to go last July, when he voted NO to that TA. He made many good points about the company over-reaching, and their wanting to take their bonus money out of our PS payouts BEFORE we got ours, etc.

He went down to the A lounge when we got in, and picked up a lanyard. He retires in June, but he's all in for the fight to restore the profession, even though he most likely won't ever be restored for the millions he lost.
