The reality of our situation is we are nothing but contract labor. Major airlines will find ways to outsource to the cheapest bidder, we can't stop that. Prospective pilots want to fly at a major and will go wherever an upgrade or flow exists, we can't change that. In the end we're left with two choices; play the game and accept substandard contracts to hopefully make it to a career job eventually, or refuse to play and quit the industry. Being obstinate and standing for an ideal that doesn't exist is folly.

Cujo (Igou) I have no idea what your agenda is. I wish you'd just stay on talkairline with your little gaggle of followers. Your corpulence disgusts me, your lack of intelligent thought angers me, and the fact you're able to stay in office saddens me. At least when you were posting as Mason32 it was interesting, now you're just a run of the mill angry, bitter poster.
