Anyway, we can pontificate till hell freezes over, but we'll just have to wait and see!
Um excuse me? Bc i was furloughed united, i had below career expectations than those at or around my seniority at cal?
Nice try, but not quite. Id wouldve rather been furloughed from ual than working at cal had they not merged. I wouldve retired 190/7650 ish than a combined 980/12000 ish. To say that i had lower career expectations is nonsense. Using the alpa merger policy, i fully expect to be senior to cal hires prob a year or two ahead of my ual hire date to compensate for the decrease in seniorty to match my original career expectations.
Ual has more pilots ( for now), parked 100 planes, has way more widebodies, and higher career progression and we acquired ( didnt merge) cal for $23/share. If u think the arbitrator wont take at least those items into account, please dont take a drug test. U wont pass
But yes, we will just wait and see.
