That's the funniest thing I've read all day. Are you reading this Al?
Waaay back in the '80's when I was in college and my airline of choice was hiring only deregulation pilots, I talked to the Navy and Air Force. They didn't exactly laugh, but...
Mission hacker? No, I just expect that if I put my family on an airplane the crew acted like professionals and used all available resources prior to showing up to work.
Safety and contracts should not cross.

Should we do distance learning for free too? I mean it’s just reading and a couple videos right?
Maybe we should give the company a break on CQT as well. After all we aren’t REALLLLY flying a plane. I don’t even have to wear my uniform!!!!! What a great deal!!!
Since we are at it I’d probably be ok with 30 minutes of pay for every hour of DH. I do have to wear my uniform but sometimes I sleep on them. It’s only fair.
Im the one that should quit though. Sure. This is why we are in the position we are contract and company/pilot relationship wise. Fool me once……
Good lord.

Believe what? That the company should pay us for learning new procedures? I’m not a salaried employee.

If you do a turn with no rig, do you skip the walk-around? We were paid DL for flight keys, did you get everything you needed as you hit the enter key as fast as you could? No problem, they just pushed it to Comply, so you can check in( still not getting paid if no rig) and learn it when it goes live.

You are paid. Your hourly rate compensates for such tasks.

This is a camel nose. You not being able to understand that is part of why we are walked all over daily by the company.
