Like I said before. Our union is looking at your list before we took over as to the integration, so when we integrate, many of your guys that have been on furlough will be flying again. I don't know exactly how many, but I've heard that it was when we took over the company those who were active will be active when the integration is complete.
1. Your union is not talking to us. In fact they have blown us off, thus we needed to file for arbitration because of the 20 day limit within a/m.
2. Most of guys won't come back at your crappy pay rates. Unemployment would be better in the end especially if you can be home and not commute to bfe.
