We don’t go around telling the 1978 hires they have only been here since 1985 because they spent 7 years furloughed.

ALPA forcing the company to put flying where it isn’t needed would be totally wrong. How bad do you want to fly Captain? The last bid went junior to everyone on the list prior to the merger. We just happen to be growing the East/west coast and Denver. IAH and ORD used to be junior as well. The pendulum will swing that way again.
