This is hardly surprising.
Having been in the airline industry for over forty years, I have watched with some amazement as group after group of pilots (and their unions) have tried to hold managements feet to the fire on numerous occasions.
Does it work?
Only for a short time, as most pilots, and their associated unions, seemingly fail to realise that...
The company not only gets mad, they get EVEN.
Eventually.
Every damn time.
I guess it's time for a new group to wake up and smell the coffee.
How sad.
