I made a joke. Your reply was not a joke. So I clarified my joke. I’m not seeing what you’re seeing, I guess?

Ever wonder why our contract is so bad? It's has so many holes it makes swiss cheese look solid.
Because people ignored loopholes thinking the company wouldn't take advantage of them when times got tough. Time's will get tough, probably tougher than now. And they will have you flying an extra turn at the end of every single four day if it's what it takes to avoid cancelling flights.
I don’t understand this logic. Everyone here, and I mean EVERYONE, b*tches about how AWFUL the schedules are, how little time off they have, how much the company takes advantage of them, how little they get paid compared to everyone else, how they hate flying the jet, blah blah blah blah. This TA offers a SMALL opportunity to have a couple of those things improved. But it seems that the pilot group would rather have it be status quo, have the company say “oh well!” and then we wait until 2022 or whenever the contract is up. I don’t get it.
Look, in the end, I don’t want anyone to get screwed over by bad language. I’m undecided as of yet on my vote. Just trying to play devil’s advocate. If the pilot group truly feels slighted by this TA, let’s vote it down.
