keep thinking like this and it may never get resolved. If you're going to really commit to getting it done, it can't matter if its your first leg of a 4 day or the last leg and you're running close on making your commute. And don't think that DL, AA, UA, ASA, etc. etc. will give a damn about who is behind them when its their turn at the table.

Along with the on time arrival/departure times going down, you'd be surprised what pressure calls from other airlines and ATC managers will do to get your management team moving.....What the hell do we care if you taxi slow? we all get paid by the minute.

oh yeah... that would require people thinking about something/somone other than themselves....what was I thinking about?....never happen at some airlines
