How was the airline picture a year ago? Pretty good I’d say.

How about some optimism? Right now over 170 different vaccine formulas are going through trials. Yes, a way to go, also they will never be 100% effective. Then we have this election to get past.

The picture could be VASTLY different next June. That’s a large part of my mindset, adjust as needed later.

Expect crickets from those that have been negative on the TA and indicated they'll take an EO.
They'll return here to either gloat that this TA didn't work or will develop amnesia WRT to the TA and EO.

10% less days worked for the top
18% less days for the middle
50% less for the bottom.

and the tiers are fluid, especially with potentially 655 new members to the top two. Not to mention some of my WB buddies who’ll bid to a lower tier and commute only twice a month

seniority honored and we are all in this together

I have been negative Andy but have never indicated taking an early out.. I'm still comfortable saying I don't think it will work, but when it doesn't I won't be gloating. I don't get pulled in to the this will have us in better position when it all turns around, I can't believe they sold the group on that statement. I am okay if I'm totally wrong but I will be surprised.Time will tell.

Wrong. PVSL2 pilots, despite not flying do not create tier move-ups until they turn 65 (or 24 months from DOS, whichever comes first). So even if 655 sign up, it won’t move the tiers at all.

Regrettably I’m not on team Duvie. Fracturing the pilot group to achieve this victory is disgusting. I know you don’t understand.
