But then again, you knew that. You are just watering at the mouth at the thought of feeding at the trough. 🐖🐖🐖🐖🐀🐀🐀
Yep. He understood exactly what I meant. It's manpower negative and allows the company to get by with less staffing.

I will NOT defend picking up extra time (PP or not) with any pilots on furlough, that is wrong in my book. The company however will cover undesirable trips using a carrot or a stick.

If they can't use JRM, which they can't, they'll cover shortages with PPU. This will allow them to run lean while pilots are on furlough.
Gotta put in hard caps whenever there are pilots on furlough. Only way to fix this.
