One that sticks to my mind were 'promotion is at the whims & fancy of the company'. Guess now the company will reward the brown nosers & disregard the seniority list.
Either you have a very short memory or you choose to ignore previous MAS management actions. As late as the late 90s MAS disregarded the seniority list ( MAPA hardly protesting, in fact MAPA acceded readily ), promoted junior ass lickers to the B744 bypassing more deserving seniors. What was even more shocking was that several of the juniors who bypassed their seniors had aircraft impact incident records....wing tip contacts, shutting down good engine, etc. So even with this rejection of the present MAS management offer, the brown nosers within/without MAPA will still get upgraded and promoted.
