CAs overwhelmingly voted in the worst flow possibly, all because the majority didn't wanna update logbooks or do an interview that you basically we're gonna get through with no issues. Everyone knew that garbage flow LOA benefited only senior pilots. But now something benefits FOs on property, who btw are making less than new hire FOs, and CAs are throwing a fit about it. Pot meet kettle.
You whining about how terrible your life is is the same thing as us saying "back in my day".
How's the SAP? When was the last time you worked a holiday? how about a weekend? Kid's birthday? When was the last time you had only 10 days off? How long were you on reserve for? Ever sit hot reserve for 10 hours? Ever done it for no pay?
A few more months and this place would've been in serious trouble. A few months is a long time though right? About how long you were on reserve for.
Have times changed? Sure. It won't stop me from rolling my eyes every once in a while.
