I hate to say this, but I feel I must. There are plenty of jobs out there, not flying jobs, but plenty of jobs that pay more than making 50 seat pay flying a 70 seat jet for GoJet. Drive a UPS truck, work at an FBO, sell cars. Heck, when I get my notice from Uncle Hulas , which I figure will be about OCT. if I am lucky, I am planning on working the ramp for Southwest. For those of you already there, you're right, I am not in your shoes and you know the story so I don't need to repeat it. For those who are getting furloughed and thinking about going there. DON"T DO IT. Stick with YOUR pilot group and not MANAGEMENT. Believe me, if they will screw you at TSA. they will screw you at GoJet. Besides, all of this will be moot when United goes Ch. 7 anyway.
