I had lunch with a buddy that is at American Eagle the other day while I was on a layover and he told me that scheduling is junior manning pilots even though they have pilots on furlough. My question to those of you that fly that junior man trip is this: What the He!! is wrong with you??? Do you care that little about your fellow pilot that you will step on their backs to make a couple of extra bucks? Dont answer the phone on your days off or if they get you while on duty call in sick for it. I cant believe this is happening!!!! Put yourself in the position of the guy on furlough! You are collecting unemployment and your "buddy" is out making time and a half at your expense.
Disgusting!
