As pilots we seem to always be thinking the worst and that picture that we try to enhance just gets more obscure. Sometimes it seems like we are kids with a coloring book and crayons. Coloring all over the page doesn't make you Jackson Pollock though. Moral of the story, ask someone that knows what the they are talking about instead of the angry kids with crayons.
Look at it this way. Our ALPA union dues are offset by this rate, so you get a FREE ALPA membership by flying 700s. Only 45% of the world's airline pilots still have jobs post-Covid. Keep it all in perspective.
