That's not how I feel about it, it isn't just about some kind of justice while truly it is fair to say that when public sector workers whether in Spain, Greece or the UK are asked sacrifices and cuts EU workers can't continue to have automatic promotion and special tax rebate, it is outrageous, come on.
It is also about policies coherence, a need for credibility. The best most recent example is today, the EU is asking Bankia to cut 6000 jobs (http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/b5a59122-3951-11e2-afa8-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2DUtGhY7B) and a 50 billion asset sale in return for aid. The EU is not telling Bankia keep spending your head off and we'll pay. The EU is asking for cuts and not a mild reduction in pay but 6000 redundancies, tell me why should things be different for its own budget. It is impossible for people to understand the logic which on one hand allows EU staff to have more than above average wages, automatic promotions and a special tax rate among many other goodies tax funded and on the other hand the very same people asking job cuts for aid?
It can only lead to disorder and  am not saying the demand for cuts at Bankia isn't necessary given the bank situation, just saying that it is bad policy to have it loose for some and tough for others, it encourages irresponsibility and confrontation.
Anyway what make you say a deal won't go through?
