Did you call the new employer and say, "Thanks for the great job opportunity but I make more at my current job and I couldn't hold a line that would have subsidized my pay?" Especially if you're nervous of a furlough, I would imagine you'd get your foot in the door at the new job in case your current employer may furlough you in the next year.
Yeah hindsight being perfect and all...
Of course I’m being attacked for not making the perfect choice. Now that we know the company did not award an EIL to over 10% of the pilots that asked for it. Yeah I should have chosen differently during an incredibly stressful and uncertain time. Shame on me.
I wasn’t aware that bidding for the EIL and LOA at the same time was even a possibility. Was it?
The only reason I brought this up to begin with was the asinine post about buying up even more simulators and space for the MAX. The only thing the Air Group needs are 175/195 sims. I hear they are hiring pilots at Horizon again.
