Totally out of line post. Now is NOT the time for this sort of divisiveness, even if you are correct (my personal opinion is you are not).

What was negotiated was the ability for senior people to choose and the most junior people to get what’s left over. That’s the same way the bid works every month. You signed up for a seniority system when you joined the association.

If senior people want to take a pay cut so you can keep your job then they have that choice.

Let me say that again:

IF SENIOR PEOPLE WANT TO TAKE A PAYCUT AND LET JUNIOR PEOPLE WORK THEN THEY CAN.

Sounds to me like they did a great job making sure IF anyone get’s furloughed then at least they will have an airline to return to.
