A lawsuit in which they will win. Seniority has to start somewhere and as the youngest in my class over a decade ago, I get it. Short term pain. My class already has its oldest retiring within 2 years while I and others have over 20 years to go, the last decade of which (if we stay healthy) will have us under 10% seniority systemwide and retiring sub 100. Why is it not fair to give those who made the move later in life a temporary leg up?
