Any other thoughts/ideas?

That's the problem. BLG will be lowered, and those DP's are REALLY going to disappear. Guys will justify it, "got to make up what I lost" and "why should I support the union when the union did this to me?" (Not flame bait, just what I think guys will say to defend themselves.....)
It can really suck working at a place where you can't be sure the guy flying next to you has your back.....

How about we do NOTHING. The company made $2 billion (BILLION) dollars last year on $22 billion revenues. When Paul, "O" and every other important person in Hacks Cross /AOC reduce their pay, then we'll talk. Don't give up carryover, etc. If they want to offer early outs, that's fine with me.

I'd say it's time for that to happen already! But, I'm in agreement. That would be the final, final, final straw.
