I'm pretty sure you'd be on the EOP list because you couldn't hack it in whatever seat you were checking out in. I don't like this anymore than you, but I think you are stretching it a bit.

Or, fall off your horse right before training and are unable to attend training for 3 months, burning sick leave at a higher rate. Oh....nevermind, it would never work!

Personally, I won't consider it closed until they cancel it? Now that, would certainly bring this episode to a close

Don't we have another excess bid to go here?

I kinda feel like the bid isn't closed with an expected follow-on excess bid.

With the gross assumption that this bid will not be cancelled...This was just the first hurdle for many. I can't help but wonder what the scope of this next excess bid will be and if any more dudes will get bumped off the bottom of the wide-body lists.
