You're all totally in the right over this. Hang in there and don't let your management's mismanagement be your fault. I'm assuming the FAs are being pretty supportive of the pilots at least, right?
Flight attendants are supportive, they get it. Even the gate agents I've dealt with have been supportive for the most part. I think most of the rank and file employees understand the type of management we are dealing with. But again this is purely a staffing issue. They should be able to staff our airline without trying to scare people into working on days off.
