Doesn't really sound like the CRJ PBS is 100% seniority based, contrary to what some say.
And sorry, but what you're saying seems slightly contrary to what the other poster is saying with the examples he gave and the various scenarios.
When discussing people being put on reserve we are talking about the last 15% of the seniority list. No REAL seniority there. In most cases they would not have held a line anyways.
