Poke pilots eyes every chance they get by "what's a SIL," "it's not a violation until an arbitrator says so," "racketeers," "all of your PB days are belong to us now," the list goes on.

We are where we are today because of conscience decisions by leadership. Things ran along pretty smoothly before we had a massive cultural shift in leadership. Somehow, other airlines manage to run their operations without calling their pilots 10x a night for premium flying.
