True. I didn’t see the part about the LCAs getting screwed over until after I posted.
Having said that, there’s no shortage of sycophants signing up to be LCAs. A senior Captain was in Denver last month, and he said he could hear clapping and cheering coming from the room next door. It turns out it was a class of new LCAs going through training.
This is really about getting the PIs paid, and screwing the rest of us in the process.
