We have a much better QOL and much better compensation than when you all started and better than we've ever had it. The essence of the job itself has never changed. Most of your complains are about the nature of the job itself. We are a business jet, on demand operation, the nature of the job, the daily life on the road, the flying, the constant schedule changes, this is the nature of our job. You knew what the job was when you signed up.
All your complaints about the nature of the job are completely irrelevant when it comes to compensations. When you get your quarter-million dollar increase, then what? suddenly you are going to love the job? Give me a break. Most of you have always hated this job and got stuck here because the 121 didn't hire you, or furloughed you, or went bust. So you it's really your life choices you are complaining about. This is not a job for you, never was, no money will ever make it better. Time to do yourself a favor and go be happy.
I understand that ad is just a weapon, but very immature.
