It’s absolutely crazy that flight attendants don’t get paid until the plane doors close.

How did airplane companies get away with this?

i think it’s similar for pilots?

I don’t see the issue with it as long as they are getting paid a good rate.

For instance if you’re collecting 250k a year from doing this work it doesn’t matter much if it were salary or if the doors are closed because it’s good money either way.

The problem here is that they aren’t getting that 250k because their rates are so low.

Agreed, whether it’s pay by mile, from when the door’s shut, when boarding, or set off by the time a certain phone call dispatches you, that’s just semantics. If you’re making a good wage or salary, what of it? The real issue is 24k-27k a year. That’s 13 bucks an hour on the top end. 13 bucks an hour when you have 2k a month rent for the cheap roach infested slums in most cities.
