Case in point - when they yanked PB day washing, all they saw was the straight dollar savings they were getting in payroll reductions. This summer we will have WB and NB flights cancelling because reserves have lost a major incentive to come in on their days off and salvage the operation. They'll see the costs in delays/cancellations and whatever other associated costs those items incur, but they won't connect the dots to see that their earlier PB cost savings are causing these future cost increases.
