The lifers are those with too much invested in their seniority to leave or locals who are putting up with less than the legacies because of their bases.
If this passes nobody knows what will happen with hiring and attrition. You think it won’t make a difference, but Spirit thinks it will otherwise they wouldn’t offer it. I tend to agree with Spirit that it will help. But we don’t know for sure, I could be wrong. The only thing we know for sure is that we have an INSANE amount of leverage right now.
EDIT:
I think Spirit knows maybe it’s not enough, but it buys them time. If this passes, they can manage long enough till the JCBA.
