If the "bluff" is called. SKW Inc. will not like the result. I think a lot of the folks here, myself included, would rather leave this industry if this is what is required to stay in it. I am a 10+ XJT captain with plenty to lose. But I will not be party to what it seems SKW Inc. wants to set up here. We give far too much of our lives for far too little in return already.
Management is making this into a joke of a career. Pilots' lives are the punchline.
