I'm ok with SS--even if most go senior to me--simply because they adhere more closely to seniority than, say, OOBWS.
I'm a West coast pilot. Seems the OOBWS bad mentallity exists mostly in ATL amongst senior guys, who see their neighbors in PTC who commute to NYC OOBWS "their" GS. I haven't sniffed that sentiment anywhere East of the Mississippi. I don't think many people out my way care if OOBWS got put after GS, or left it as is. It's not very common enough to notice.
I'm middle seniority now, but I will be senior for a long time. I still think SS is too rich. Needs a leveling.
