Should Suzie be called back and placed ahead of YOU because Monkey and Chump have merged into Monkey Chump Air?

Seriously though, 3 years ago I couldn't find ONE UAL pilot that was happy with the direction of their airline. Every single one of them were begging for CAL to merge with them so they could get our "good" mgt. All of a sudden UAL was the best thing since sliced bread that saved a dying "little airline". SMH
You didn't check with me three years ago.

Second, I'd like to introduce you to the word "Longevity". If you read the methodology you would understand that status and category AND longevity were weighted.
