So many will be furloughed, then elect the radical left to office, raise taxes, pile on more debt, pay for all the social causes, open the borders, enact the Green New Deal, emissions for airliners, Airbus already test flying pilotless airliners, less jobs to come back to, This will change travel just like 9/11 did. Many will have their career set back a decade. It’s a cycle.
If you think growth will return to pre Covid levels anytime soon, you are fooling yourself. Many waited decades to see the growth we finally had in this industry. That ship has now sailed and the growth that will return will be slow.

As far as the mask, yup, wear one because I have to and where I have to, but here out in the fly over states, it’s a lot different than the city slickers that want to run this country only one way. Sounds like you have that east coast liberal mentality. Like I said before, common sense, keep my distance, wash my hands, stay away from crowds.
