Anybody who doesn’t take the time to take a good hard look into the prospects and viability of a company he/she intends to invest years of their life into, or a major they intend to invest decades of their life into, is doing a disservice to him/herself and their family, especially in this career field where relative seniority is the name of the game and anytime you have to start over you go to the bottom.

And anybody with a sort of ‘Inshallah’ attitude, who believes that “The facts and numbers you mention could change overnight wether for bad or good,” and that we therefore ought not to worry ourselves about them, ought to seriously ask themselves if 121 flying is the right career for them.
I think you really need to chill out a bit. There are people here that are planning to go elsewhere as soon as hiring starts again but there's not a lot that can be done until then except make yourself ready. There are people that are going to sit tight and wait it out for flow. You're not going to change their minds. They bought it already.

In any case, posts like these just come of like the "get your house in order" posts form those 9 months ago. It gets old.
