Please read the original post. This is a guy that has his world crashing in around him and yet he holds hope for the future, does not hold his fellow pilots responsible, as he recognizes the pilot groups have little to do with the current situation.

Almost 50% of the entire RAH seniority list was hired in 2007. They had no clue what they were getting into. Most of them had 1000+ coming in and several came over from other regionals hoping for a faster upgrade and/or to work for a more respected airline. That has now collapsed around them. They are being bashed as scabs and probably will have the one of the longest upgrades of any regional.

Clearly the original poster has a much higher degree of professionalism and integrity than the bashers on here. I pray for him and his family that his furlough or job search will be short and that his example is followed by the majority of pilots.
