The company's interest is NOT centered around Quality Of Life for you guys. It's a one-way street for them - they don't give a damn about QOL for the pilots. They want it to enable them to get more work out of you.
I was somewhat involved in the preferential bidding system test in the early to mid 80s. The company was only interested in it to work you more, nothing else, no matter what line of crap they gave us back then nor are giving you today.
