A certain number would still be doing the extras if we were taking pay cuts & had guys on furlough. The number’s never going to be zero but it’s less today than it was a month ago & it will be less in a month than it is today. To what degree our management actually cares is another matter, but seeing a FB post about “Captain GAF” doing a boarding gate greeting doesn’t necessarily make it indicative of broader trends.

As an aside, who cares about using your full name? I’ve been to numerous PPR type events. I never heard that suggested as a company preference, & I’m hard pressed to come up with a reason why it would be. I certainly didn’t know there was a “cool way” to introduce oneself, what it is, or why. (First only? Last only? Title only? No title?) Just introduce yourself as you’d like to be called & don’t read too much into why someone else does it differently. Am I wrong?
