Maybe we are all looking at this the wrong way. Maybe if we make pay so bad for ourselves maybe now one will become a pilot. So in 10 years there will actually be a pilot shortage and Mainline will have to take all the large RJ's Back because they are the only airlines to attract pilots. Maybe National ALPA has a long term game plan, that is to let management screw us over so bad no one will want to do this job.
For those who do not have a sarcasm detector or it is deferred I am being sarcastic. Although they might unintentionally doing this.
