1. Was finding another flying job a challenge? Did anyone consider going back to flying RJs or freight?

2. Is it more beneficial to look at jobs, apply before furlough, and potentially take a voluntary to be on the front side of the wave to get another flying job?

3. Theoretical Question...Does or will ALPA work on agreements with our RJ partners to hire pilots from DL?

4. if you didn’t go back to a flying job during furlough, what did you do?

5. If you take a voluntary furlough, can you comeback when your seniority # is called or do you wait until all the involuntary furloughs are back?

TIA
I was actually looking forward to some answers to your post. Deserves its own thread for visibility.

You’re stupid and the problem if you don’t do as I say. Be like China... (Expression of gratitude.)

I dont like how anyone- Red or Blue state has handled this. Trump either- he didnt react initially and then folded to the medical community later who love the attention and are alarmist to begin with.
masks wont save your job- passengers will. The masks may be a feel good, but its only that at this point. Most have had it by now.
Keep telling yourself this and making it a partisan talking point, but wear a mask in the meantime to protect me from you. Yeah it must be the “MSM” in China, Italy, Spain, that caused them to do the same thing too huh? 65k deaths in 4 months with the country mostly shutdown is a bigger problem than you want to accept. Doesn’t matter what you think, it matters what makes people feel safe to get on planes, and if that’s masks then so be it.

Agreed. Unfortunately most of the useful posters are rarely on here. I think all the political shouting is wearing on everyone.

How about you wear a mask to protect me from you. Masks are nothing more than comfort food for the hysterical.

Guess you won’t mind if I accidentally cough or sneeze in your direction in the crew room, right?

As long as you follow up with the usual, "It's just allergies." Then it's all good.

Is it really 64K?

There's some massive financially and deeply politically driven stat padding going on.
