Well, this colgan guy (who upgraded prior to the SLI, and could have held a 200 CA slot, but didn't) will be getting down graded (including the 15000pay cut).
The difference is while the fences may hurt me, I'm not bitter. The dice were thrown, and I got craps. Oh well.
That said, I'll still wear the four stripes I earned, and I'll respect the CA to my left. If you have a problem with that, too bad.

The 4th stripe can be removed, and when I was forced to sit back in the right seat I removed it. Do I care if somebody has 4 stripes and is sitting in the right seat no. There is just to much other stuff to worry about around here.

Is that the case if you got the jacket with 4 stripes on it already? Mine started out as a four stripe one, not a three stripe jacket that I had an extra one sewed on.... If not they need to buy me one

I also upgraded at 9L pre-merger ('08). I'm fully expecting to be downgraded before this year is over, and when I do I guarantee you I will NOT be wearing 4 stripes in the right seat. That, in my opinion, is HIGHLY disrespectful to the guy sitting next to you. Note - This does NOT pertain to check airman and their jobs.
The dice were rolled and it is what it is. I've enjoyed being a CA and learned an awful lot. But when it comes time to go back to the right seat I will respectfully put back on the 3 stripe eppaulets. At least I'll still have a job which is more than I can say for a lot of pilots we work with.
