I presume you are referring to denying jumpseats to a scab. You will still see Captains who check names against the "master scab list." These days, there are only a few scabs still around (active pilots), and most are at United. As an outsider, you may see this as "petty and cold hearted", but union pilots see scabs as the lowest type of scum.
