i think the OP just poorly stated his thinking. Airlines have always hired until they furloughed. It’s simply tied to the business and the economy. It just isn’t possible for any pilot group to prevent a furlough when an airline is way over staffed. Airlines take such an opportunity to divide the pilot group and any cuts to save jobs become permanent. It’s nothing more than a degradation of the job you will come back to and ultimately have to live your life under.
