As far as being stuck in Hong Kong, sure it sucks. It sucked being stuck in Iraq for 5 months during COVID with the DoD, but maintaining CRT still beats being furloughed and my family didn't have to worry about paying bills.
I'm not inviting you to leave where you are to come to Atlas. I doubt many of us would want to fly with your attitude. Stay on your light twin and enjoy your paycheck. I was talking to those that feel the need to look for something different than where they are now. It's not perfect, but Atlas treats us pretty well.
Hey now! Say what you want about Halon but take it easy on our beloved "light twin" with engine issues! Haha Truth is, we have really enjoyed flying this light twin for Spirit and the great lifestyle it has provided. Now, thanks to one Judges out of touch opinion, myself and some others would like to just continue doing the same thing for a Legacy carrier that offers some stability. I doubt many are looking for something different

Haha... Engine issues? How about the "firebird" in Miami a few weeks back... no offense meant to anyone else. I've spent a lot of my life on one.

It sucks when a non-aviator screws over a pilot group. We dealt with that under former management and forced arbitration. Now he's purple's problem and we all see how well that's going. I hope all of you that feel the need to exit land on your feet at a great carrier.

Well that's why I married a petite woman. Seems huge in her tiny hand.
As stated, all the maturity of a petulant 5th grader. In the absence of intelligence move to personal attacks. You represent your airline and profession well.

"Light twin"
My sides. Here's a guy who doesn't care about any part of his job and long as his ride is big. The equivalent of a short guy with a lifted truck.

You nailed it... I care nothing about my job. I've never seen the inside of a crash pad, I sit first class just to get to work, don't deal with pax, and make more money than I need to keep my family fed and happy. All while flying a 747 all over the world. I also have a lifted truck!!! Ain't life great!

You still can't address your own failed argument trying to link being quarantined in Hong Kong to a business model. I can make rational, objective statements about what I do for work and why that fits my lifestyle, and why it might be a good fit for someone else. For some reason I just don't feel all that pathetic.
