I’d be a 777 DFW RSV FO right now making $400K working 6 days a month, but instead I’ll soon be commuting to FLL, gone 20 days a month, to sit 18 days of Short Call Reserve for $275K. |

sorry, but anyone who pretends that they took a furlough in order to save someone else’s job is completely FOS. You did save a job, but you took it because you either wanted the time off or already had another job and wanted the furlough pay. It’s like turning the lights off in your house and saying that you prevented global warming.

Yeah… using the exceptions as the rule is disingenuous. Everyone has talked to a SWA CA who said “ I made $950k last year and had 28 days off per month. Pilots like to embellish and it seems you’re doing the same thing.

no pilots will be saved by not doing it. Only more CBA abuse. |
I should've expanded regarding the SLI.
Won't change your seniority afterwards, but a buyout will probably result in fences and bonuses (lol) depending on seat. Maybe hopefully? In reality, The Long Defeat for Spirit more likely. |

I just can’t bring myself to X or Y list when my fellow brothers and sisters are on the street right now. I’m old school I guess, but that’s how we did it back in the day. Just not right to pick up 200% when you got junior guys at home working at Home Depot just to make ends meet.
In fact you not doing the rare XY makes it more likely to cancel which hurts Spirit more than it will ever help anyone get recalled. |

I’m guessing you will see an uptick in those “ Hey buddy how’s AA going “ texts shortly |

Ah yes… that one wide body CA I heard of that makes a million dollars flex. Who cares. It’s not you and never going to be you. Dude probably had to suffer decades to get to that point. Maybe a couple of failed marriages. What about having great schedules and watching your kids grow up? How much is that worth. 10 years ago they probably would have told you’d be dumb to stay for the flow instead of going to Spirit, Hindsight is 20/20.
Hundreds made $800k plus This brain wash that only NK pilots have QOL. Have any idea how many AA pilots max (imax) out and have the last 3 months of the year off, and I’m not talking about FAA 117 max. |
