Dirty little secret #1... you thank your lucky stars that your not the pilot group that is going to "take one for the team". If those guys strike, lose their job, the only thing is they are going to get from other pilots is "respect". Well thats just great. I lose my house, my kids dont go to college, Ill never be able to retire, and yea I was stuck making 100 grand a year, but at least I got "respect" from other pilots. Oh how easy it is to beat the wardrums when you dont have to fight. Trust me, they are not going to strike.
