The selfish captains couldn't accept that they FO's were getting pay raises. The captains threw a brat attack, and said that if everyone didn't get a raise, then no one will. That is what happened. You are just to selfish to see it.

(and have you seen the age of the new hires in the last year, I bet the class average age is 35+).

If someone is drowning, I am going to grab the first thing that I can find that floats and throw it to them, and then try to find something better. Be it a basketball or a CRJ200 seat cushion. Your argument is that the drowning person should not get the first thing that floats that may save their lives, they should hold out for a shiny, brand new life jacket. All that person wants is something to help them until they are able to help themselves. And you are denying it. You would rather that they drown than to accept less than something perfect.


Try looking at it objectively.

There is a pilot shortage and first year FO pay sucks. It just changed. They just got a $10k pay raise, and it was taken away by the captains that they are flying with because they wanted to make more as well.
