I wonder how many flights they were able to add. I was recently furloughed and wondering what they are going to do because they were already short on F.O.'s. Well, just found out they are going to train a bunch of captains to be right seat qualified so they can use them as F.O's or captains. Obviously, they can't afford to pay me $32 to sit in the right seat but instead pay someone $84 an hour! As they would say, I guess I don't have the big picture.
Another shining example of the Error group in this story, capitalize on the weary and call it good will.
