Absolutely spot on. The sooner people stop believing the corporate BS ‘We are all one big family’ the better we will be. Pilots need to become cut throat in the way we treat these corporations. Stick together and make as much money as possible.
’We are one big family’ except with finances and when the next GFC strikes, then you you are on your own regardless of your mortgage, kids school fees, bills etc..
You owe these airlines nothing, stop being ‘So grateful for the opportunity’ like you see on job social media sites all the time..
When times are tough the board of directors get pay rises, you get fired and the cycle starts all over again.
