OK, I'll bite. What's your point?

Getting furloughed is a major life event. There were suicides, destroyed marriages, & financial ruin for many people.

I was furloughed in '08 and it sucked. It sucked a lot worse for a lot more people. Your posts can be construed as flippant and disrespectful.

It even troubles me that I wasted time responding to your comment.

Old Mako may chime in here with more words, but I would guess this would not be worth his time. You've been at UAL for a few months at least. Surely you have received some mentoring.
