That's all!
Some make more money at home, compared to the amount of time spent commuting, waiting at the airport and for hotel vans.
Management trying to throw it back at the pilot group, is another attempt to vilify, while not taking any responsibility.
We are just fed up with the treatment and pay and do not feel like working overtime, nothing illegal or wrong with that.
Agree with you however they will probably pursue legal action and arguably have grounds to when looking at performance before and after.
IMO that will just further inflame the relationship between us and them ultimately exacerbating the situation for themselves. Could be a short term win for them but a long term catastrophic failure.
