At the end of summer, he upgraded to fly Delta passengers on a widebodys across the north atlantic, because we still owned that flying. Now he works two less days per month with all commutable trips and is using the extra pay and time off to remodel the kitchen.

I regret that they think they achieved money for the pilots, instead of understanding that we earned it.
I look forward to the day when the "nut jobs" fully take over.
