And we got reduction in flying due to a breach in the Chinese biological weapons lab in Wuhan which has caused coronavirus.

what I did when I was in this situation once in 1994 was go out and buy a puppy. They can all find temporary work unlike me as flying jobs were hard to get, but if they are qualified to come to UAL, then they are qualified to do something else til they get the call.
