You can build a case that the natural place for those guys is their date of hire (read the Katz letter). What case can you build for why they should have positions 1-170 on our list?

why make them think about it...make it a no brainer. We save a ****load of money in lawyer fees/increased dues...the process is sped up, they are happier with the integration.....the furlough can end sooner....
oh...there might be a few ruffled feathers in the upper levels of the caste system...I mean Union, but hey, it's for the good of the whole not a few!!!

I can't imagine any of the FQS would sign for less than being stapled to the bottom of the CA list -- none of them will give up a stripe and I really don't know how you could integrate the list by DOH if a bunch of them would meld into the FO list but they get to stay Capts?! Some of the senior FQS wouldn't sign for being stapled to bottom of CA list, they'd want a higher number. It seems like a pretty tough nut to crack...
We might consider the assistance of an outside consultant. We need a real "hands on" type of guy who's known to reach around the aisle and grope for solutions. Willing to take his work into the shower and keep a close eye on things. I think there's a gentleman vacating his congressional seat in NY who just may have the time to help us out.

Are you surprised one would say this? I mean, the guy was IPA gone to the dark side....no surprise there.

The offer of DOH makes sense as an indication of what they rejected when we go after the positions. Its would establish that they rejected union representation when offered while working in the same class and craft. It might well allow us to paste them on the bottom since they rejected DOH.
Now we are going to go to arbitration stating stapple them at the bottom because they would not take DOH. Seams like a week argument.

They would get to stay Capts as long as they stay in their present base and equipment. So the junior types that were invited to ANC by management and are in the left seat up there, would NOT be allowed to bump into SDF as a Capt just because they are a management Capt.
The problem with that type of fence is the handful of SDF based B747 manager Capts, where do they get locked ?
The DOH thing isn't as "tough of a nut to crack" as you would believe ...
But we both know, the larger issue is the ego of some of the ready made manager Capts who aren't ready or willing to become a part of Labor ...
