I’ve seen some of this on the widget pages recently as well. What started as no involuntary ALV cuts is starting to turn into no deals period, and I truly don’t understand it. I completely understand why folks don’t want an involuntary ALV cut imposed upon them. I don’t understand why anyone would take issues with an LOA containing strictly voluntary measures? If they don’t like the voluntary options then they need not apply (just like VEOP). I’m not sure what’s to be gained by opposing a voluntary measures LOA... I’m hoping it sails through the MEC this week.

Holy crap I thought this forum was bad but someone told me to go check out chit chat and those have to be the most toxic people in this company. Idk how people can live their life like that.

The sad thing is that CC was the same even when we were going through the best of times. If you couldn’t be relatively happy then, what would you expect now?

while I don’t disagree with the sentiment, millennials are usually defined as people born between 1980-1995. Most people don’t realize that older millennials turn 40 in 2020.
From the best I can tell, many in the boomer generation (b1946-1965) were hired at a major around the time they were 30, that is simply not true anymore

Mid to late 30s is a normal new hire, 50 isn't unheard of.
Wheni told them my age (40 at the time) and that I didn't retire from the military their minds were blown.

Often when flying with senior guys on the ER (good Eurotrips pre covid) they'd figure out i was 40ish, and be amazed i was a new hire.
