I am just wondering how does one vote on a contract if they don't know where they stand seniority wise.

Scenario #2- one may vote in favor of a contract that will benefit them as a captain, yet after the list is complete, they now find themselves as a F.O. and not what/where they expected.

Scenario #1- IMHO, when it is agreed that "BINDING" arbitration is the route to go, well, that's how it is.

I guess it's just easier for me, 'cause I am WAY low on the list, and it wouldn't matter what the outcome is on the list.
