As somebody who definitely wasn’t there at the time, and will definitely be furloughed soon......explain why furloughed vs. active makes a difference? They are all on the seniority list, yes?

-not trying to argue or be a punk. I’m genuinely curious why they shouldn’t be treated the same.

Dude its a long story of merger history, mediators, jugdes and unions. Just hope we dont merge with anyone else unless your feeling lucky.

ReadOnly, You are correct. It has NOTHING to do with anything. The fact that I was furloughed by United should in no way be used as some justification for someone saying I should have been "stapled" below CAL pilots who were hired EIGHT years AFTER I was hired by UAL. I thought I was totally over the "civil war" ****** but some folks here are (pun intended) tearing off the scab. I have flown with many excellent LCAL pilots (flew out of EWR for 1.5 yrs on the 757). I believe that if you are a doosh, you're a doosh, if you're not, you're not. Doesn't matter what legacy carrier you came from, if you were military or GA, if you were Army, or Navy, or USAF or whatever. If you're a tool, you're a tool. And I'm def calling out AirMic and Whaler as falling into the tool category. It is the most ignorant argument in the history of commercial aviation to argue that a non furloughed cal pilot should automatically be senior to a furloughed LUAL pilot. A ridiculous thing to say, yet there are many who say it. I will hazard to guess (and only calling out the tools here, I don't want to incite another round of the Civil War) that these individuals have a rejection letter from United. When I was applying, I applied to ever swinging Richard out there, but i wasn't going to stop until I got to either United, American or Delta. Who the hell chooses CAL when they have two letters in their hand (one from CAL and one from UAL). Get real. Just sayin'. Peace out.

Your the effing intitled tool.

If if's and but's were candy and nuts.... oh what a merry Christmas we would have!! The SLI is 2 things....
1. DONE
2. FOREVER


Management. "Let's retire the guppies and furlough 1500 pilots. CAL has plenty of guppies with more on order. We can ramp up those assets quickly in DEN, ORD, LAX, SFO, and DCA."

CAL ALPA...."Those furloughed pilots need to be stapled!!"

Eischen... "uhhhhh. No"

The End.

Even the furloughed CAL guys?

Intitled? Wow! Also, learn the difference between "your" and "you're"...just sayin

ya YOUR a tool

Look, whaler was probably sitting there with no college degree flying rubber dog$hit around between Little Rock and Texarkana. Of course he thought CAL was a good job.

Was UAL a good job in the 2000s?
