If I don't fly those 20 hours and I overblock 4 hrs on top of the 66 hours I've flown now I am at 70 total hours of work; I by no means believe I am entitled 90 hrs of pay.
I have only worked 70 hours, I'm embarrassed to be from such an entitlement generation.
You should be embarrassed to be selling yourself so short. If you think you only "worked" 70 hours to block 70 hours, I won't waste my breath trying to explain it to you. If you sit at the airport all day while your legs get cancelled 1 by 1, you should be compensated. You do realize this is how it works almost everywhere, right?
By the way, my kids are from the "entitlement" generation, and I taught them how to earn their way through life. I just want to be compensated for my time. What a crazy concept.
