Gonna wade into this quagmire....
The company doesn't have pilots on furlough and they're actively hiring about as many new pilots per week that they can train so I don't see anything wrong with folks picking up SRM trips. It's in the contract that we agreed to and it's a win win win situation. Pilots can get paid generously for filling a shortage (win), the company doesn't have to cancel a flight (win), and most importantly, passengers get to their destination (Big win for customers).
If pilots are on furlough, I feel it's a different situation entirely, but that's not the case at the moment.
