If you were one of the few that showed up to a picket, or said "no thanks" to an offer to extend, thanks. If you were one of the guys that decided to extend and spend an extra night in Rome, or couldn't be bothered to attend one of the pickets, I hope you enjoy your middle seat, you earned it.

As for me, I have 5 picket pins, haven't extended since GW Bush was President, voted NO and STILL only do my job.

It was pretty much the same group, month after month.

The GLC captains should have gotten less.
Between their extending and years of service - they have shown both their willingness to accept whatever the company offers and no indication of being a threat to leave or of striking.
As a result, the pay for the bottom 25% virtually guarantees you'll have nothing but a revolving door for the next 10+ years.
Should have given the most senior crews NOTHING, walked back their pay (or made the entire payscale not seat dependant) and tried to push them into retirement.
