Because some of those guys have been riding the Gravy Train for years, getting paid 89+ hours at -what they can hold- while NEVER having to commute to JFK in January to actually FLY what they are being paid!
They've been sleeping in their own beds every night, getting weekends and holidays off, sucking on the DALPA teat while going to meetings with management, and having lunches and dinner with management, they forgot who they are supposed to Represent.
Their gravy train just crashed into a wall, now they are actually going to have to go fly the line! God help them.
