I don’t come on here a lot, but I’ve been through all this crap before. I flowed over 5.5 yrs ago. Like any average dude trying to get out it was tough. Only good thing through all of this was I was never furloughed, I was young enough when I came over, I still had 24yrs to go on the other side till retirement.

I've worked with enough guys to know, that it’s still hard to get on else where. Plenty of former military guys I’ve flown with took 2/3 interviews else where before they were picked up. As a civilian, it’s even harder. So this talk of lifer crap, I’m gonna get out etc, etc, you don’t know. Throw it all at the fan. I tried before I flowed when hiring started again. Years, bazillion hours of PIC a CKA letter and a job fair, and crickets. So you really don’t know. Good luck, I hope this time around it’s different for everyone.
