Rather be furlough from mainline than furlough from a regional.

I think I'm senor enough to hold my spot where I am but I got to tell you, I'd rather be junior mainline sweating furlough threats.

Uh... every pilot (almost) who didn't. Are you a pilot? Do you understand how this is supposed to work?

Just unreal that someone posted this.
