Safe to say the mindset is “If you weren’t looking to work here when the airlines were going gang busters, than this really isn’t the place for you.”

I was the victim of very poor timing with COVID hitting and shutting down my regional just as I was becoming competitive for my dream 91 gig. No flight departments were interested in a furloughee. Oddly enough, after a year or so in the acmi world, a very solid 91 gig presented itself, and shortly after getting settled back into the 91 world, some of the legacies that I had all but written off have started to call. Pretty wild times for the industry the past few years. I suspect that a lot of companies will not have the luxury of being as selective as they once were going forward.
