Exactly, safety should not be negotiated.
It is completely ridiculous that we as airline pilots have to expend negotiating capitol on things such as fatigue policies and duty/rest rules. That IS NOT compensation WHATSOEVER. We are paying to make the airline safe because the airline and the FAA won't.
