Sometimes that's just life in this world, far beyond this industry. I don't think you'll get much traction from a position that states that a new hire should make the same as a current 777A.
I did that for 2 years at my regional at 10 days off a month or less making less than $30k a year. Some people did it for the better part of a decade. What's your point?
