Did management EARN the options they are cashing in? Is that really your question? Because the answer seems pretty darn obvious -- NO! How do you deserve bonuses like that when the company you are managing is consistently losing millions?
Have mechanics not EARNED their pensions, which the airline is trying to take away, all the while locking in those of management before it does away with them for workers? Yes, certainly they have. NWA planes aren't crashing down from the skies, are they? Then I would say they did their jobs competently, UNLIKE management.
