I left in the red, but not by much so I call it a good Vegas trip. Went with a few other fellow furloughed Comair FOs to celebrate our job loss.

Saw in the July hotel notes that we're no longer at the Wingate in LGA. Now we're at the Marriott that is right across the street from LGA in the roundabout. Oh well.....

Just curious to those who have been furloughed before. What did you do in the mean time? Instruct? Find a freight gig? Truck driver?

Recall will always be most senior to most junior, regardless of whether it was voluntary or involuntary. The only way a junior pilot would be recalled before a senior pilot would be if the senior pilot bypassed the recall and waited until the next round of recalls to come back to work.

Well first, drink lots of beer, then more beer, then LOTS of beer followed by a shot of tequilla, then more beer! Then for the grand finale, dance with every casino coyote ugly girl you can find! Vegas anyone!!!??
Seriously,
Do whatever you can do to make you forget of this industry temporarily, have fun doing it and hope you can get back to it sometime soon. Why? Im not sure....basically survive and do whats best for you and have fun doing it....CHEERS!
If you're married...COMMUNICATE and include the wife or husband on whats best for the future...NOT what is best for you, rather for BOTH of you....
