Mathematically, for SLI purposes, "Active LOS" + "Furloughed LOS" = what?
It equals "DOH".
You can't just "magic wand" active years into your LOS and come back to DOH, but nice try. Not original though. Captain Brucia heard all of these schemes back during AAA/AWA. Good luck and I honestly look forward to you guys on property. Godspeed!

For the record, not advocating DOH here or in any merger of equals.
Longevity for pay for furlough time is a goal in the JCBA (at least on the UA side). Whether an arbitrator equates this to SLI LOS is a stretch. How they balance unadjusted LOS with status and career expectations is the million dollar question.
I would expect and can see this is a very sensitive issue for all of us.
