1. Have you ever tried to split a bill with the FA's? It's just easier to pay the bill than the 30 min it takes to argue and divvy up the bill.
2. It's not about paying for someone who cannot pay the bill, the exception is the half wingers, but more as a gesture to take care of our own. Meaning, I'm clear saying this at the time, the deal for me paying is, when you upgrade, you have to take care of your own crew in the future. The better we work and stick together, the better off we are as a whole.
