While I think deathrays delivery was a little harsh, there is work out there. Although I imagine it varies by region.
While I do believe flying gigs will be incredibly tough to get, non flying jobs are in abundance out here in the Bay Area. You won’t get rich or even replace what we make at UAL but enough to survive for the recall.
I’ve got 2 non flying solid job guarantees in the 50-65k a year in addition to a flying job lead fwiw.
