Again, it's EXACTLY the same as sick and GS. Are people who get sick last minute having their seniority abrograted when they are put to the bottom of the GS priority? You haven't answered that. It's exactly the same as this scenario.
I don't have a dog in this fight... but the sick person was pay-protected (with sick time), the MLOA person was not.
