Makes me sort of wish I'd kept my name on their list (I chose to cut my losses to pursue other avenues). It'd be tough not to accept the recall in tough times like this. On the other hand, would I really want to go back to TSA? It'd be one hell of a culture shock after living at home again (I commuted before) for a year in my own bed every night. Faced with the decision, it'd be a tough decision to make either way. Not sure how I feel right now, regretful or happy that I am free of the whole mess. 50/50 maybe. Its just illustrative how much of a hold this industry can get on one who loves flying. It truly is a love/hate relationship if I ever did see one. Its part of the reason these internet boards are as "lively" as they are. A lot of passionate, yet "****ed off" folks on here.

For those who view this as good news, I am honestly happy for you all. The dice came up a winner this time.

Since we've established that no "new" flying is happening out there, who is getting the short end of the stick? Are more pilots going to get furloughed from whomever is losing the flying?
