If you have any seniority at all I'd be very hesitant to go to the bottom of another airline's seniority list in light of the chaotic geopolitics taking place right now. If we end up at war, our lack of long haul international might actually insulate us from the next downturn to some extent. Historically the Gulf wars and the 08 financial crisis all led to furloughs and bankruptcies. There's a lot of balls in the air right now around the world. A few thousand pilots below you might be the buffer you need to keep the paycheck coming in. If that happens displacements will be the least of our worries.

Go ahead and post your Eeyore pictures. I'm just saying be prepared for the worst and hope for the best.
