It's the complete lack of QOL improvements. Major QOL improvements will never come outside of a pay agreement. We get so blinded by rates we forget what really matters are work rules.

I'm not blinded by rates, but there is still enough there to get a yes out of me. What QOL are you wanting specifically?

85 hour cap on awarded hours, include reserves in all guarantees, 150% for awarded hours above 85, higher MDG, better trip rig, real language controlling staffing levels.

Most of the regionals don't have a trip rig, but all of them that do have 1:4, so it's not like our trip rig is lagging behind the industry.
Maybe it is because I flew for a different regional prior to coming here, but if you went and did some time there, it would be a major eye opener for you.

Well to touch on a couple of these items, why would they raise MDG when us and Republic are the only two carriers at 4:12 everyone else in the industry is lower. Endeavor is 4:00.

The people running this company aren't stupid. The reason why this airline has existed for almost 50 years is because we are profitable. If pilot costs increase too much, you end up with another comair.

Sure, protection for commuters hasn't gotten any better (and probably never will), but I live in my base, so none of that really concerns me to be honest.
