The people they are trying to force out without putting up the money to get them to quit are never going anywhere. It would make more sense for them to ride the company into the ground than to go elsewhere and lose seniority and pay.
On a side note, the JFK bid packets for December have a min line of 77. Whats the big deal if it goes down 2 hours to 75 for a few more months (assuming the LOA is extended for a set amount of time)
If the bid packet for December has a min line of 77 hours, then you should see that the company isn't following the rules. The big deal is if we go down another 2 hours(so you say) then they will just build lines a few hours under that and continue to not follow the rules.
As far as the people that they want to leave being bought out, it will never happen. The place is being liquidated. They wouldn't pay tons of money to buy out senior guys and then close the doors. Instead they are shedding whatever weight they can so water can replace the empty space in the ship forcing it to sink. And yes, DS will go down with this ship.
Aren't we overdue for a net conference?
