In my opinion, Skywest handled this the best they could, probably better than a lot of other airlines, and the wait times for crew scheduling.... although they were about 30-40 minutes to speak to someone a few days ago are down to about a 15-20 min wait, so they are slowly catching up to the craziness. Some of the United trips got totally chopped up and I'm barely flying half of the assigned block, the delta trips look like they are sticking with less cancellations.
The airport now seems safer than the grocery store, so I really don't mind being there currently.

Yeah, the last trip I flew, we had an FA coughing and sneezing and complaining she felt terrible. Sitting next to her on the hotel van was fantastic, let me tell you. We asked her why the heck she didn't call off...you can guess the answer. "I need the money! I don't want an occurrence!!"
Fortunately that was 12 days ago and I feel fine, and so does my wife, but seriously folks...

Also, I would stay home but they would give that trip to a reserve and he or she would be in the same place. I have integrity so I haven’t called in yet, though I do post trips for pickup when I can.
Any other questions?

Really???? Sounds exactly like one to me. It’s just a colorful renaming. It’s going to look so much better in the coming years when Skywest can say, never furloughed. However, we did do administrative leave without pay. NOT
