Like I said before if those guy took the first opportunity to recall how many of the "displaced" pilots would never have been hired in the first place.
I understand guys being upset about not being able to reinstate - I would be mad too, but when I break it down logically it appears to make sense. No pilots junior to those who were displaced came back, not even close.

The displaced pilots might be junior, but they have spent more years on property than the returning furloughs. It sucks to get displaced from your base because it is supposedly overstaffed only to see the company create your old position for the returning furlougheees. It was not done fairly. I was not affected by this, but I know pilots that are. They are not happy with how it played out.
