A lot of DCI crews just don't care anymore. With things like their boarding priority equal to or lower than a buddy pass for a large fee after using a couple pass travel days during the year, or always getting a middle seat on deadheads, or having mainline move their flying around rapidly resulting in base closures, they don't have as much incentive. It sucks, but that's the way it's setup right now. Way too much outsourcing.
Shouldn't take
three different companies to get the potable water filled at an outstation but it does sometimes.
