Reflecting on your post, Shintaro, it DOES say something about today's airline managers.
They treat staff like sh!t (in the majority of cases), but expect loyalty in return.
Pilots are fortunate, inasmuch as there is a BIG pilot shortage looming, and now starting to make its presence felt.
Pilots are sick of the shabby treatment we have received, and are therefore looking at $$$'s and favourable contractual conditions - something that wasn't so important to us before, when we were treated as human beings.

This generation of airline managers must rate as probably THE most expensive, in terms of what they are - and will - cost the companies.
In a way, they've done us a favour by treating us like dirt, and thereby pushing salaries markedly upward!
