I hope you hold the same feelings when you reach their age and hopefully still married to your first wife with your super still intact.
While it may be a delicate subject for some, many of the problems falling into those categories I've observed over the years in this airline are very unsurprising. On the career and money front, some of them have managed to have their cake and eat it too, while also being determined to go back for one last slice.
Back on topic, I'm a little surprised at the "140 redundancies on the 767" mentioned. I was telephoned the other day by Allocations to discuss a leave assignment and I got the impression that while transfers/demotions were being looked at, the 767 excess wasn't as high as that. Especially as they are mindful of creating big problems when the economy turns around again.
