Or (if you’re a captain) a senior guy/gal who couldn’t care less
. Lose-lose situation. Next time just take the premium.

I'm wondering on when we will make any real progress with mediation taking place, I'm still under the impression we won't see anything voted on tuntil end of 25/early 26 at the earliest... The only way I see it happen earlier is if boeing gets their act toghether and starts delivering on the max 7/10 in the next year or two, which is highly unlikely...

Defeatist. Perfect. Have you considered running for a union position?

Also, the pilot group can’t not pickup premium open time. I believe it was FEDEX that got in trouble for that exact same thing.
How many pilots are selling their souls for straight pay open time? There’s a bunch of whiners on this website complaining there hasn’t been anything in the daily open time pool for them to pickup.

Defeatist? No. Realist? Yes.

Exactly. So if you’re wondering why QOL has substantially gone down on the FO side that’s the reason. Zero Opentime and it all gets hoarded.

It was a stroke of luck that looks like a genius move by management. Stop premium for a few months. It changed the game and pilots became pitted against each other fairly quickly. As a pilot group we’ve yet to go back to the old ways. We are stuck in a cycle against ourselves.

And yet if they all worked together, in unity, to not pick up every second of open time the premium would flow like water. And perhaps if they worked together, in unity, to not pick up that premium in 0.02 seconds the payout for that premium would go higher. Other surprising benefits may begin to show up beyond that. It sounds impossible at this point but that’s exactly how it used to happen just two years ago. People used to drop their schedules and just wait. It was a glorious time where by working together everybody made their own lives better.

PR isn't stupid; as much as I might agree with you, posting this is.
