LOA: leave of absence.
LOA: letter of agreement.
A pilot may be on an LOA (voluntary or otherwise), which through an LOA may be able to come back at his/her choice and resume their seniority but not credit longevity during leave.
But a pilot who left may be able to come back on an LOA and restart their seniority but get longevity credit for prior time worked.
Clear as mud? I'd hope in the future you all just let Shadre Reevis opine, so he will sound this dumb in the crew room. Is he wrong? Of course. But he was so clearly wrong we could have just as easily let him continue on and wait until he said something this dumb in the crew room and shared a laugh together as a team. Use your head. Its very likely now he'll keep his stupid mouth shut and we'll miss the comedy he could have brought to our day.

Thanks. I just found my own answer on the company website and will post it here for anyone else who cares.
"Employees must retire on or after their 52nd birthday with at least 10 years of consecutive service or have at least 25 years of consecutive service with Endeavor."
