How much? QOL,
There are some things more important than the almighty dollar.

Didn’t hear of many voluntary furloughs before March despite the ample purported benefits and character building experience.

Maybe. I can argue the same for those who just barely hang on...especially those commuters who will bump from WB FO line holders to NB FO.

Somewhere around 5 or 6 years ago there were rumors, on APC, about UAL having 18k pilots by 2018. There were a lot of naysayers. If I remember right, I think I wrote that we were more likely to hit 8000, AGAIN, before we ever saw 18k.

Hopefully I was wrong, but do I get any style points for being one h$ll of a lot closer?

Do I get style points if I predict your wife is cheating on you, and she is?

This has really payed off with the wild roller coaster ride at untied over the last 20 plus years.

Or it could be because I'm not a Millenial. YMMV

Good post...these Millennial-pilots will finally get a taste of what us old dudes are talking about. Ive been at this almost 20yrs i got six hats in the closet. Im so annoyed listening to jackoffs talk about how at least its better than Mesa or some BS regional corp cargo job.
