I was involuntary recalled and took a 50% pay cut from being a 767 FO. It at least helped retirement, although being at 50% of expected income for 18 months hurt.
But hey I was just in Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq doing counter One Way UAS stuff. Not like I was in a bad or dangerous spot. Denver layovers are worse.
United Guys, your stick up your keester is worse than what you accused us of having.
and that’s what YOU signed up for just like the rest of us. You signed up to be recalled, you signed up to put yourself in harms way.. you are not owed anything special for that other than a thank you from grateful nation and a pension if you did it for long enough . We all knew when we joined what the price was but we didn’t do it so we could be “owed” something down road except what we already knew when joined. If you did, then you joined for the absolute wrong reasons and I have zero sympathy for you.
