I agree (no surprise). The anxiety over the list revolves around career expectations; they're subject to numerous variables, many of which can't be accurately quantified or predicted. Everyone's view of the future is unique, and is colored by their own outlook on all of these variables.
We've seen this sideshow over at USAir. It would be great to avoid it here, so we could get on with taking advantage of the synergies that this merger will provide. A rising tide will lift all of our boats.
I know that doesn't answer your question; I'd like to hear a response as well. Is there a NWA guy out there that could explain how he would be hurt by relative seniority?
