Perhaps on an individual basis, some did ok but as a group of CAL active pilots, we got our heads handed too us.
BTW...kudos to the UA MC...they orchestrated and played the changes to the ALPA merger policy too their strong advantage and the arbitrators believed in their methodology.
True. It does sting a bit and while I don't agree with furloughs above active it is done. Time to move on, maybe I'll take the other job offered in Ord now or stay in my new role.
