I understand that raising ADG would incentivize them to squeeze more productivity out of us though, but I guess some of us are fine with that and others aren't. I'm almost 100% sure the company would not want to raise ADG and would love to lower it. It gives the company much more flexibility the lower ADG is.
Again, respectfully disagree. You are looking at micro examples. You have to look at the macro level.

IF they could force everyone to work more per day, they would need fewer pilots. There will always be the one day turns to AUA or PUJ that pay 8 hours. Now imagine if every trip could be made like that. How many pilots would they need on the SL? More or less? The same number of block hours flown by fewer pilots. Macro.

Don't take my word for it, ask your reps.
