and we have 347 on furlough, more than twice CAL

HogsPilot. I am not putting down the pilot, its actually the opposite I believe you guys are worth more than 75% deadhead and should be making more then me being your flying a airplane almost twice the size. Also the pilots may be a great bunch of guys, but does not change the fact that in my eyes it's disgraceful they don't pay for your hotel during training.

You guys need to seperate the pilot from the company, just because I say negative things about an airline does not mean I feel the same about the pilot working there. If it came across that why I apologize Some of you guys need to grow a thicker skin.
Okay, understood, it is bad they do not pay hotel during training. It would be better if they paid 100% for a deadhead. But remember that even when United was at the top of the heap, they didn't pay for hotels in training.

Also understood about seperating the airline from the pilots as well.

After trying for months to find something and finally getting an offer, it felt a little like you were ****ing in my Wheaties. I will work on growing the thicker skin. Peace.
