Yes, if there wasn't a merger those same pilots would be Captains on Continetal airplanes while those junior to them would be foaming at the mouth to fly the "great wide bodies" of your decrepit old and liquidated airline.
But since there was a merger there was a TPA. It was agreed upon by YOUR MEC, and allowed pilots and airplanes to be shuffled around the system on BOTH sides.
Sled, your side got an obvious windfall from the SLI. Quit your arrogant grandstanding and move on.
