As for all those on here that want to fault new hires for their beefs about pay, QOL, work rules, etc ... I say look in the mirror and see where the true problem lies. How on earth do you blame somebody else who is simply looking for a job (at the same airline that you work for no less)? Do you not see the folly in that?

Here it is ... plain and simple. You know those union dues we're paying? Well, how well is THAT working for us? I can not with a sound conscience blame my own situation on a new hire. If I choose to sit quietly while waiting and hoping for things to change while my union does nothing then I'm equally to blame. The new hires have no dirt on them. They didn't cause any of this.
