I don't mean to sound harsh, but seriously, that's how contractors work.
If one paving company loses a city contract to another paving company, so be it. If one taxi company loses an airline crew contract to another taxi company, so be it.
Sucks for 1 side and not for another.
The downside is that once this model is in place, everyone ends up being the side that "sucks". In the not to distant future, that reality will be back around to tap you on the shoulder and you'll have decide how cheap you're willing to work for or watch your flying shifted elsewhere.
You're on top this go around, so enjoy it, but within 4 years someone else will be repeating your words back to you on this forum.
