At least in the FB groups, nobody is high-fiving. Everyone (by everyone I mean most considering there are always outliers in a large group) feels for what is happening to TSA pilots as is the case for Compass pilots.
In regards to extra flying for UA, its more complaints. We are already understaffed to the point that most see a total eclipse more often than we can drop a trip. FOs are being bypassed for upgrade/transition to either airframe because they need the bodies where they are.
SkyWest pilots are not celebrating the pain of others.
