because you basically said you wanted him (and in turn those below him on the list) on the street - which would include me. So sorry for getting offended. Jerk.

or maybe he meant that he had hoped that guys seniority number was lower and in the group of people who had been furloughed. Perhaps he wasn’t hoping for 500 more people to have been furloughed but that this one guy happened to be in the group that did.

exactly. Wishing that any pilot is out on the streets is a total dick move. Maybe he’s related to Blue Falcon.

because then he’s not hoping for you and 500 of your friends to have also been furloughed as you assumed and ridiculed him for. He’s just musing about a specific person that he has distaste for to have been furloughed vice someone he has no distaste for. I’m sure if you had a say there are some pilots you would rather see on the furlough list than others. And if you say you wouldn’t then you are just being dishonest with yourself.

Regardless of what he meant about SM and furloughs, the fact that he has distaste for someone making videos about their career also make him a douche. I watched a few of his videos and they aren’t bad quality. It’s a lot of fluff and it does spin Envoy in a positive light, but anyone old enough to be making decisions about coming here is/should be smart enough not to base those on one man’s videos. There is enough material to show it for what it really is. Just do your research. Leave the guy alone and stop being a douchebag. We’ve got bigger **** to worry about than a 10 minute video on what he brings on a trip or how he commutes.

I didn’t assume squat. Or ridicule him. I simply acknowledged the fact that someone who would come on a public bulletin board and identify someone by name and express their wish that that guy be furloughed is a douchebag. That’s a simple statement if fact.

the fact that he apparently did because he doesn’t like the guy’s YouTube videos WHICH NO ONE IS FORCING HIM TO WATCH, merely ups the ante. If he had a more rational reason to dislike him, it still wouldn’t justify using an anonymous board name to vilify someone.

Indeed. From the legacy perspective it's regional pilots, who work for pennies on the dollar and fly mainline routes while we're furloughed or on reduced ALVs.

Nobody is wishing anyone to be out on furlough, those that got butthurt about it just took it the wrong way, and I don't have a problem with SM at all.
My point is had he experienced furlough himself maybe one of his videos would include this topic and perhaps bring more awareness to the current situation.

This Mesa dude tried to thank Envoy guys on this forum for a nice ride, and he got attacked cause his post was not properly worded. Give me a break

Because of giveaways in scope the legacy pilots have given up to their management - at least for those legacies with any scope limitations at all...
