Loss of seniority as others are bidding off. Crappy schedules due lack of trip mix. Ever mounting MELs as mx decides not to fix certain things since the jet is going away. Mostly the reasons I've heard.

And the fact that full reverse thrust on landing blanks out the rudder causing it to possibly depart the runway in crosswinds or slippery runways.
