Dude, most of us get it. We're trying. We're still suffering from the effects of incompetence in the past, which is why we have ended up working under contracts that have been impacted by arbitration in a significant way. I recently flew with a guy who didn't have a problem with the idea of the company outsourcing E190's or similar sized airplanes. Every time we have a mandatory retirement, our pilot group's stance on scope becomes more united. The more regional pilots they hire, and the more retirements we have, the more things will improve. Things take time, though. The mistakes of negotiations past are still very present.
