This is the point I'm lost with the possible rescinding of displacements. Say 2 guys got hired at United in July of 1999. Call them Bill and Joe. These two were in the same new hire class, basically exact seniority. Joe decided to upgrade to 757 Captain a couple years ago while Bill stayed in the right seat of the 757. Now, post displacement they are both right seat 757 again. With this proposal (possible/hypothetical) it means Joe and Bill are doing the exact same job with the same seniority but because Joe got displaced he would be making more money. Doesn't that violate Union 101 rules, same seniority, same seat, same pay? Now say Joe was a couple years junior...it gets even more unreal. Am I missing the point on this possibility?
