Then when several years down the road I am recalled and my longevity at UCAL would return to my furlough point after I have been flying the same airlines customers?

What I find insulting is; having my work outsourced, being offered a job at that outsourced company (essentially replacing myself) and having people expect me to be happy about it, being whipsawed against myself, and finally the fact that ALPA thinks it is acceptable to have us outsurce ourselves.
As usual, well said man. As you stated, it's strange that UALALPA advocated the J 4 J deal while other MECs strongly advised their furloughed pilots against doing it.
