We all know that guy.
The difference is 9/11 and furlough. This isn't 2001. Going FTS from a reserve job is one path to a career in the reserves. It is not done now because airline pilots are gainfully employed. The difference between this situation and that one is that this one is scamming two employers. That one is trying to feed their family with the opportunities available due to unfortunate events.
Alright, I am done because anyone who is dumb enough to do this is going to justify it however they want. I have said my piece and it won't change anyone's mind. Have fun explaining yourself to your bosses and military guys in the union. They should get a kick out of it.
