But really it is no different than it is now. If there is no growth, there is no movement.

Ok, help me understand your posts here. The first post insinuates no growth (I think), then the next post says we're growing?
Also, I take issue with your logic in the second quoted post. You want to rush to introduce what looks like a mechanism for stagnation (longevity system) while we are hiring. Essentially, you are suggesting we trick the new hires into trapping themselves into a company with ZERO growth at the top and a newly adopted longevity system that would screw them even more WRT QOL. "Welcome to Delta, you may get pay raises but expect your QOL to suck for the rest of your career".
Was this longevity idea introduced by the company, DALPA, or just you?
