Well that's the problem. People are comparing similar companies and realizing that they would be getting more vacation for time served, sick time bank / buybacks instead of the use it or lose it policy we have, generous compensation for getting home late on day 8 (or day 7, what a concept) automatic crew meals, seniority, additional compensation for working on national holidays etc.
That's why we're losing pilots right now.
