"I really don't see FR* Dawgs point. I think we all agree furloughs suck.
Furloughs suck. When the rule changes.......there are going to be over 60 guys flying and these guys will be senior too."

I was responding to a poster who said the union was supporting retroactivity, (even though ALPA National, the FAA, Congress, and likely a majority of their own members are against it) because the company would try and use their non support against us later in regard to seniority issues. I was pointing out that no matter what happens, the company will try and find a way to try and exploit any outcome and gave an example using a furlough scenario. My point is I did not agree with that justification of the MEC's stance. Sorry to confuse you.
