Don't see this as divide and conquer. We are not voting on this. We are not being told to accept the Captain's screwing over in order to get our full 100%. No I think all flight crew would agree this is wrong.
This is just stupid management. In a twisted way they may even have been trying to show that the upper management was willing to forgo some of the SLS payback.
Instead they have pissed the very crew off who do a large amount of Company ass covering by extending into discretion, working G days, answering the phone etc.
I for one think this is a bizarre way to handle your most senior crew...
