If our idiotic leaders aren’t interested in those things, that’s fine. Just give me my green bar or give me my rigged three day that blocks 11. I don’t care. The more guys that take half pay ETO or whatever BS the morons in Dallas come up with, the more the rest of us will have to fly just to make guarantee.

You want to furlough in this environment over what it at most a temporary issue? Go right ahead.
I'll take my green bar and min guarantee and live like a G because I am still budgeted for it.
During Covid, I worked about a half schedule and got full pay which was amazing for me. Redid all my flooring and painted my house. Win. Don't threaten me with a good time.
