I agree that employees know the pay and benefits but flight crews do NOT know how many times scheduling will change your schedule or how many times a CP will "enact" their will on operational issues that directly affect duty times.
I agree that this will raise eyebrows at most but here's hoping that some minor duty times will be changed. The FAA has dismissed NTSB and expert testimony for far, far too long and then they wonder why there are problems.
