YAY! 75 hours... but if we don't furlough, so be it
I may be misinterpreting your comment, but despite the low credits on the lines for September, aren't you happy to be a part of an airline that is doing so much to keep from furloughing? They could just as easily have jumped on the bandwagon like nearly every other company in operation and announced furlough. I find it commendable the lengths they are going to in order to maintain their pilot group. As one near the bottom, I am obviously thrilled to see this, and if I am in a more senior position in the future when something like this happens again, I will be more than happy to accept a lower pay line because I will remember what it meant to me as a junior pilot.
Like I said, perhaps I misinterpreted your comment. If that's the case, my apologies.
He was being sarcastic.
Everyone I have talked to seems to feel the same way. It sucks but they are glad to work for a company that looks after the pilot group as a whole

Yes I was being saracastic. I'm a team player. Nobody gets furloughed while I'm making over guarantee. That's not cool.

Welcome to the Atkins way.
BTW, Grape or Cherry? Here on the West Coast we drink a lot of Grape (get it.......wine country). Next time I see Jerry I'll ask him to start make "Peach" (as in Georgia Peaches, I kill me!). LOL!
Good Day.
