"My 20+ years of experience at airline X should count during SLI even if it wasn't at VA." All so you can gain leverage and add to the 9 years that really does count. Nice try though.
You are one cold hearted individual! Whatever you think he was trying to insinuate with his post, it's plain to see he was simply expressing his gratefulness and cathartically sharing some of his pain. You don't care, but plenty of others might appreciate his olive branch. And his 30 year remark didn't even come close to implying that it should get him seniority, but only that he would be a useful crew-member.
