We can argue all we want about how we got here and whose fault it is but we are here. Both sides need to fix it.
It’s perplexing that anyone is still saying “both sides need to fix it”, especially in light of management’s recent attack on PB days.
This is solely management’s problem to fix. Either they open their wallets enough to fix it in section 6, or status quo prevails and they continue paying 300%+ for coverage. Either way, it’s not the pilot group’s problem — particularly with QS.
