Yep. Unfortunately the reality is in a COVID world that we as pilots no longer hold any kind of advantage in pay negotiations and every airlines management in the country knows it, despite how valuable any of us believe ourselves to be. Not saying I like it one bit but it’s just the reality of the situation.
Massive over supply of crew desperate to work and under demand of travel from the public is going to result in a potential race to the bottom again til things really turn around, and that seems like it’s getting much further away by the day right now.
