For just about every FO that will be more than ZW pays.
There is a special exemption if your hours are voluntarily reduced due to the downturn caused by covid.
I find it amazing how uneducated people are too, especially when they throw that insult out without having any idea what they are talking about.

This sounds like the argument from the "entitled" generation of pilots where airlines were paying ridiculous amounts of money to hire pilot that meet the minimum requirements. I'm afraid that over inflated some egos.
You aren't owed anything. If you like the Flight Attendants working rules more, go join them and take all of their rules along with it.

Most of the ones I’ve worked with are just happy to be here and understand that they had it better than most. We’re all in this together, don’t turn it into a contest over who had it worse.
