When you consider the QOL being home for extended periods and not having to commute it is really a much better gig.
I did the barbie fun jet thing, commuting to the northeast; everytime I got home I was packing to leave the next day, it sucked. I much prefer the world beer tour, as opposed to flying to lagarbage, philly, detroit and all those other glamorous destinations.
I don't fly for World, I fly for another widebody non-sched, and my hats off to everyone there for having the cojones to stand up and put their job on the line. Maybe you should look at the new payrates at the majors, and then look at what these guys accomplished - as far as I'm concerned I'll buy any World guy a beer because they just set a standard that my company should meet.
Thanks
