I absolutely DO grasp the fact that CAL furloughees are getting full credit for time spent on furlough. It's a screw job, plain and simple. That doesn't mean a UAL furloughee's active service is going to be decreased which is what is being claimed here.
I also grasp why we have pay banding and why CAL got a profit sharing side deal. I grasp the Retro Pay disagreement and settlement. What I do not grasp is why anybody at UAL would want to go back to the table with these guys. I am not voting no because of this LOA. It will not change. Good luck on the lawsuit.
