You go from a UPS CA flying your own company's branded freight to a ACMI CA with no customers. Are you, as a former UPS pilot too good to work a purple panel, 'Ned'? Your years of service to UPS will continue as you carry UPS freight in the back of your 72
I would make decision along the way that were in the best interests of my family, and if I had to start over at the aquiring airline on the panel, I would gladly do it.

I would NOT go walk a picket line and slash my own throat.

The decisions that you make in life have consequences. You win some you lose some.
