Not aiming at you ACL, just reminding some redtailers what ALPA did for the furloughed brothers. After all, they wanted to ensure the furloughed guys had well paying jobs to return to.

An old argument.. again.. and you will hear the same high warble here when/if we furlough again. No greenslip flying with guys on furlough... all the while junior guys answer the phone at 3am to take that assignment... the only way to make this willing self-abrogation of seniority work is to make assignments and greenslips pay straight pay when guys are on furlough. IF that ever happens, invest heavily in the company that makes Smart Ring... you'll make a bundle
