LOL oh please. You've got to be kidding, right?
We gave a staffing concession because we wanted to be professionals?
Management was like "we don't care if you get paid to sit at home, thus driving the need for more pilot staffing and a larger training bubble" and we were like "aw come on boss, please let us fly before TOE so we can hone our skills and honor our sacred obligation to those entrusted in our care" and management was like "oh, I don't kow about that" and we were all "please! please let us fly, possibly for free, and in any case compulsory at your discretion not ours, for professionalism!" and they were like "sigh, fine, if it means that much to you…"
And not being able to be scheduled for domestic flights prior to TOE is unprofessional? That's got to be the silliest hyperbole I've ever read on a forum.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say you were just trying to be sarcastic.
