Right now junior assignments have been through the roof. Scheduling has been absolutely horrible. And quite frankly, upper management needs to pull their heads out and do something drastic in favor of the pilot group. Otherwise we will continue to go down.
All that said, it’s amazing how the market works. Go back to when the industry was fat on pilots. Sure getting juniored was rare. But overall the airlines sucked hard! Pay was crap, management was worse. This was true at every carrier.
Basically what what I’m saying is we overall have it pretty good right now. For those if us that remember being in a crappy place, right now ain’t terrible.
Of course the market on pilots ain’t fat. So management better play ball with the group.
