how do you mean? Like in the “first world” way, where realistically Most UAL pilots probably have a network or some skill they can fall back on to make sure they have a roof over their family’s head?

i feel extremely fortunate to not have received a WARN yet and to have a family network that could help if need be, but not everyone has that, and often through nothing other than bad luck.

sure, if you’re under 60 you’re statistically likely to not die from this, but if having your life Completely upended And wondering how your family life will look in 6 months makes you upset deserves a “chill pill” ...

if any of us flew with someone who was going through something this bad, independent of the entire country, we would be floored and would offer any emotional support we could to that person… Yet some people have just totally put the blinders on and refuse to acknowledge the impact this is having on others.
