I've never met a more selfish group of people. It's never about the profession. It's purely about themselves and filling their bank accounts

Ready to punch out when 65 comes.
Greed at at the top at the expense of those below. Maybe they should all become politicians.

The SCABS were the worst. They were all of that, plus crossed a picket line. These LEPRs haven't done that. Basically, the only difference between them.

From: Small to large - in that order.
I have always found it interesting how the LEPF demographic sees absolutely no issues with this, yet is the most likely to rant & rave about scabs if you ask them. Not saying this rises to the level of scab behavior, but some of the arguments and "I just want mine" attitudes are, at the very least, eyebrow-raising.

Still waiting for an explanation as to why US Pilots should work longer when our lifespans are between 4 - 6 years shorter than Canada, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand. Given our poor health, retirement age should probably be reduced.

The US population AT BIRTH has a shorter lifespan than some other developed world populations.
Some of that is due to varied socioeconomic status across different groups and regions. But a great deal is due to young MEN dying young due to violence.
Life expectancy improves as you get older and your socio-economic status improves. Middle aged upper middle class people in nice neighborhoods (ie airline pilots) live quite a bit longer than the national average, entirely comparable to most other countries.

Because they twist it to fit there narrative. When Spirit was starting to struggle and almost went bankrupt the first time, the logic was 的 bet all those pilot will want 2 more years to make io
