This prediction is too vague. I predict that Delta will furlough 2,274 pilots starting 10/1/2020 and they will all be called back by 03/31/2022. And before it's over, they will bring back patent leather go-go boots and mini skirts for the flight attendants and crews will go back to carrying the big, plastic luggage without the wheels instead of rollerbags.

He’s changed his tune. He told us we would hire around 1K/year, but not indefinitely because around 2020 or so, there would be an unbelievable overreaction to a pandemic and that the government would shut down the economy to save some septuagenarians from dying a year early. Everyone murmured in agreement because let’s face it, if you didn’t see this turn of events coming you are oblivious to the most basic principles of professional aviation.
Seriously though, he wasn’t lying when he gave you those numbers. And to imply that you knew better in anything other than “nothing lasts forever” terms is as believable as Kim Jong Un’s golf handicap.

An OAL friend of mine (pre-9/11) said when he was in class for his legacy dream job they had someone with a make work job come to class and inspect your intended luggage/flight kit/etc and if it wasn't up to their standards they'd "recommended" some expensive replacement. When he started to ojbect he was told to shut up and color because this was the "last job you'll ever have" and "you'll retire a millionaire" and all that so zip it and buy whatever they recommended. And he did just that. And was furloughed shortly thereafter for quite a while.

This is like the 3rd time you have used this line in the last month. Get a new line, you’re ruining Top Gun for me.
