It's amazing as I sit here, flying my line, supporting my family, and hoping for a better contract, to watch a handful of my fellow co-workers pick up these incentivised trips. It must be really easy for them to snag these since I'm one less pilot who is competing against them (ie tripping over my own d!ck to call scheduling). I'm making a personal choice to not give my days off away.
Good on ya my fellow brothers! I'm sure you need the money more than the rest of us. I'll just keep inching by on our current wages as you rake in your 150 hours months. Unity!
