Had we asked for more and management said take a hike, there wouldn't have been an airline left to merge with due to the wave of our CAs punching out (which would have been most of us, but two years ago instead of now).
You sound so certain of these things. And now it’s a badge of honor for you to never forget. This sounds very ignorant. You’re imagining events happening a certain way that you have no idea about and then complaining about them as if it’s true.
