Just because our seniority number has gone up doesn't mean we have "moved up." We don't "move up" until we have fresh meat on the senority list under us. We are both stil "x" numbers away from hitting the street. That won't change until we hire. After 2 furloughs, "x" is still the most important number on the seniority list to me and that is the movement I'm concerned about.
No, your missing my point. My relative seniority on the seniority list has IMPROVED since the arbitrated list. I know have MORE people junior to me on the seniority list, not just in my category. Even though we have less pilots now then when the SLI was released, I now still have MORE junior to me then when the SLI was released. My seniority company wide has improved. Or as you put it, I have more fresh meat under me on the seniority list. I'm pretty junior though, so it doesn't take much.
