By this logic, this is all of our cases. QOL is also largely subjective, but little things like schedule flexibility are some way to measures QOL in a tangible way regardless of airline.
At the end of the day, that's simply your opinion, which is fine. As long as you know that. Driver gave you an idea of what his QOL is like and all you can think about is "how good we have it". You're sounding like some of the bluejuicers we have over here. You're drunk on the NK QOL mantra. No one is saying there aren't stuff we need to keep, just please don't go into JCBA thinking you need to choose QOL over compensation when your back is against the wall, let's go for both.
I’m his QOL is fine for 12+ years at JB. Again, the point is that we don’t have to wait 12+ years to have good QOL. This isn’t some opinion off of a brochure, this is real tangible QOL that I, and many others, are getting to experience. Blue just disregards it as luck. Which is fine, but it doesn’t make him right.
All that said, I agree we shouldn’t give up pay for QOL or vise versa. The concern is that people like Blue will give up QOL for pay. That’s all.
