Won't hold me breathe for a line, just holding it for recall right now.
Yesterday was my last day.

YEAH RIGHT! When we get back, we will end up on RES. Takes 3+ months to train a new hire, they won't start training till we are back in training. We will hit the line before them. We are so far down the sen. list, it will take 4 months of classes (2 a month) just to get us into a line holder range. And the only way that will happen is if the Delta fairy comes and sprinkles some more flying for us.

Back in College, mid terms next week. Man....haven't done that for 7 years. Also why I took the early furlough. Also working part time to pay the rent. (non-flying)

I know I joke around a lot on the ASA furlough subject guys, glad to see you all have a good sense of humor too. Trying to put a different spin on a bad situation. Just no other way for us to go now but up now right?!

I don't see three threads a day of their pilots whining about getting furloughed. Why we have them about ASA?

It's amazing how the "Acey 80" are running around to all the message boards acting like they're the only ones who ever got furloughed. Are you aware of what's going on at Comair? Air Wisconsin? Republic? United? Airtran? Hello?

What else are these boards for but venting man????? If you don't wanna hear it......skip over the thread. Simple solution. But seems like you might have more fun crying about why and creating more drama......Welcome!

Now did you have a rebuttal of why ASA furloughees seem to think they're more hurt than the other airlines' furloughees who aren't constantly whining in public?
