I would consider it,
better than being unemployed at the moment,
but I'd also want some way of getting the money back.

BA aren't saying people will definitely lose their jobs if they don't work for free.
And apparently loads of Cathay Pacific employees did it.

Yes, but he earns a fucking fortune and can afford to skip a month's wages.
He's not going to suffer much.
