Try thinking outside of the box a bit when it comes to defining "being screwed". There's more to life than just gaining a little bit of flying experience. There were families involved, other than flying careers, prior flying opportunities, TIME, MONEY. For example... I estimate my financial losses, as a direct result of Comair hiring me then immediately furloughing me, to be in the ballpark of $50000 lost income. My previous income over 1.5 yrs - Comair income/unemployment income/present income = ~($50000)
I'm not sure why you would want to push this agenda. You might just want to apologize and move on with life. Good luck to you.
I agree. It is everywhere, look at all those people that the mortgage companies "screwed over" by loaning them money for houses they could not afford. And look at all the people that get "screwed over" by the payday loan companies who charge them high interest. And look at all those people that get "screwed over" by bars that over serve them, then they drive home and get DUI's. If we could just get these "other" folks (not us) to take responsibility for their actions, the world would be a better place.
