The company does not need to/want to retain Captains. They only want to/need to retain FO's.
So what if you don't commute? What exactly do I get? See what we are saying here. Captains are tossed under the bus the help FO staffing and attrition. After the horrifying displacements and garbage pay the rest of us had to live through as FOs the MEC throws a bandaid on the FO side.
I get the strategy and I am happy for the FOs, they deserve it, BUT there is a big what about the other guys here looming here.
