Heyas Johnso,

A bunch of years ago, when we had 800 guys on furlough, I was sitting reserve, and got called out to do a DH & one leg back. Turned out to be a ferry flight.

The guy I was flying with had a WAY low number for doing a reserve gig like this, so I asked him what was up.

The short version is he lived by the airport, and he told me that scheduling were his buds and would call him for favors like this and he was happy to do them. I said "um, you know we got 800 guys on furlough, right?"

He came right out and said "I don't care about any of that stuff".

There will always be a percentage of guys like this.
