But i'd direct your inquiries to ALPA Legal or an attorney. Asking your fellow pilots for advice (legal, financial, career, etc.) is just asking for trouble.
I may not be a lawyer, (but I play one on tv), was always under the assumption that if you work under a CBA, your recourse is limited to the grievance process, unless it falls outside the guidelines of the RLA, (i.e. sexual harrassment)... Just a thought...
...but while your at it,
4runner, try to get pay seniority accrual for furloughees too. It would be a great disincentive for the company to furlough more than absolutely needed...
