Maskless A action jobs?
If masks are the future of 121 passenger airlines I need a change of work. Are there any jobs for experienced pilots where you can not wear a damn muzzle, or at least wear it less?
I thought of Atlas, ATI or whatever, most of those guys probably dont give a **** about masks, but they deadhead you on the passenger carriers, and X hours in the passenger cabin being forced to wear the damn things sounds like exquisite hell.
Only other stuff I can think of would be single-pilot pipeline flying or whatever that doesn’t pay anything. Maybe corporate if the customer doesn’t care about masks?

I absolutely hear you. If I were in the position of the FA’s, having to not only muzzle all day, but be a prick to others who want to breathe, I’m pretty sure I’d have quit by now.
Part of me thinks the mask nazis will never let up, but my optimistic side hopes the latest mask extension to September 13 is the last gasp of mind control.
Hopefully, fingers crossed, the optimism is rooted in reality.
Then I see folks double masked on the running trail and I agree with you that the muzzles are forever.
God help us all if the lefties continue in power.
