No one with any skills works for minimum wage.
You are acting like an entitled brat and it's disgusting. You have been told many times over by people with way more experience than you that concessions do not save jobs. You will still be downgraded or furloughed with or without concessions. This broken record plays every ten or twelve years and management ALWAYS pushes for concessions and then memorializes them in the next contract. There are going to be about fifteen thousand pilots on the street within the next few months unless people start to fly again. No concessions will change that.
Grow up.
