Then worked under crappy contracts under a stalled seniority list for almost a decade. It’s what the association is all about. When I was furloughed I was offered free Cobra. I never took it, but still to this day thank my elders for providing it. No one except the DZ’ers know what it’s like to lose, overnight 50% of their compensation and at or more of their pension. Yet some of you snot nosed flyboys (TopGun reference-tounge in cheek, don’t get yer panties in a wad Jr.) think it’s all about you. It sure is, but after we make wrongs rights. And that’s why I’m for the Min Balance. I don’t know what it pertains, but I’m all for seed money being added for what we all gave up, even if it was 17 years or more ago. It’ll benefit all, but some more than others. And I’m ok with that.
