So...what jobs are you thinking of applying for? Asking for a friend.

if this plays out like some believe, we won’t be qualified enough to operate a cash register.

If furloughs happen, can we expect further USERRA relief beyond the five year limit for those pilots not furloughed?

Orders extensions need lead time. Hoping some mil guys choose to stay out to help those below.

If we furlough and I'm not one of those furloughed, I hope they give us that option.

Government cheese, here i come!

Wouldn't hope for higher ups to vol. their way out to make room for those below...that's just not human nature. Nobody is going to help a random person they don't know....

It just read a bit panicky when you immediately jumped to the worst possible scenario. I’m guessing you were just fishing for some reaction from the crowd. There are easier ways to do that than nonchalantly throwing the “F” word around...

...although it is in the title of the thread...maybe I’m the one being all panicky.

If the company decides to furlough, how would they reorganize the A and B positions on the upcoming bid? Would they massively cut/displace captains to create a huge surplus of FO’s to trim off later or what? What happened during the last furlough?

Also, when someone is suddenly staring down the barrel of a coast-to-coast commute to since reserve in NYC...their plan may suddenly change.

I’m a major cargo guy but according to our CEO he thinks that the economy will be a v shaped return.

Retirements
Bounce in the economy
Summer Travel
And the expense of furloughing

I don’t see y’all furloughing. My prayers though go out to you lot.
