It's WAY cheaper to offer OT or the "$250/shift" incentive than pay EVERY jamoke more.
Only have to close a handful of bases if they think not making the OT/incentive budget for the year is a possibility.
The bonuses they're giving managers alone could increase medic, mechanic, and pilot pay but they won't do it. They know you won't walk.
TONS of bonus money for managers incentivizes you busting your butt to take flights, push 14 hrs, do "whatever it takes" to minimize delays or OOS time. Money you'll never see despite YOU doing the hard work.
They'll be quick to say "but you get paid to sit around all day" or "you get 7 days off every other week" so shut the eff up.
