Often the union needs to protect us from ourselves.
It's funny that you think green slips increase QOL/pay for a majority of the pilot group when it's really a small minority that benefit from green slips in most categories. Plus it costs the company more in payroll which decreases profits which decreases profit sharing for EVERY pilot come February. Pilots are the biggest bunch of delusional self serving people in the world.
