What don't you rocket surgeons and brain scientists get? If those of us getting recalled bypassed, you'd probably move up a number anyways as we wouldn't be accruing longevity. I've said it here before and I'll say it again, we're our own worst enemy.
4Runner, I'm sure you're in the same boat as me, here is the thing, if we bypass, some junior guys will be able to come back that otherwise wouldn't. I take the risk of never getting called again, if I happen to get recalled after I bypass I will have been able to honor my current commitment, and because I didn't burn any bridges, I'll make damn sure a Comair Furlough still out on furlough gets my seat. Period end of story. The company will get guys back who want to come back NOW. Win win to me for everyone, but now some of us are faced with burning that bridge and coming back now, and that seat will not be filled by a Comair guy cause that trust will have been lost.
