I think most, especially the senior ones think because they had to do it, so should the new hires. Usually if it's ever brought up while flying it's followed by a "well it my day it was 1700 salary a month or some low amount" so that somehow justifies it in their minds.
And with 20-30 years at the job, faced with a significant upgrade in pay for them, first year pay is not a concerns so why vote it down. Uy
The unions position is that it's the companies job to set pay for the first year, although they also said they put significant money towards an trying to increase for first year... apparently not enough (pun intended)
I don't see anything changing unless people don't show up for class/interviews etc but from what I can tell seems like there are people lined up.
