You would think, but we made that point at the beginning of the 50+ page thread. Since then we have watched the 5% pompous arse rule on both sides degenerate this place with primal ludicrus mud slinging that would make Tony Soprano blush.

One thing for sure, if the Cal and UAL positions were reversed you would see the same thing from the UAL merger committee. Hey UAl guys too bad you don't like the proposal... Thats all it is..... Do you honestly think the CAl guys would like yours'? Fair? I'm letting the arbitrators decide... What ever the outcome you can be assured the UAL side will, and I mean will file a law suit.....I don't think they will ever be happy....

You'll find out what the UAL SLI proposal is on the 15th of April. I believe you will be surprised at how middle of the road it is. Meaning not WAAAY out in left field like yours. At least the proposal will not staple 37% of the CAL list.

IMHO this entire process, including a panel of three arbitrators, is designed at the core to be "suit proof" and whatever the arbitrators hand down will be the final word regardless of the keyboard warriors.

So let's see, you are the L-CAL captain asking the furloughed L-UAL F/O what he or she thinks of the L-CAL seniority proposal? What the &%$^ do you think they will say? They're stuck flying with you for the duration of the trip, it's either go off on you or say what they said to get through the flight with a clearly clueless captain.

No, if the CAL ISL were to be implemented, my personal life would suffer. Absent a merger, I retire in the top 10 % of the seniority list. If the CAL SLI were to be implemented, I retire around 45%. My story is not unique .. there's about 3000 of us over here that are similarly impacted by the proposed CAL SLI. Do you have ANY idea of the irreparable harm that would do to MY career and retirement while greatly ENHANCING the careers of the junior CAL pilots?
Once again, the fact that CAL guys can somehow rationalize this is beyond me. I certainly don't wish the same level of career destruction on them. Looking at the proposed CAL SLI, the one word that comes to mind is, "sociopath". Take everything I can at the expense of others, get an incredible windfall at the expense of others. Kinda like the people that cross a picket line, in my mind .. step on whoever to get what they have.
Not looking for sympathy, but understand why soooo many United pilots feel betrayed by their supposed CAL "brethren" that want to destroy 16 years of our sweat equity.

Both sides have a "club of 12 angry men" that represent 75% of what is posted on this forum. They do not represent anyone but themselves...

Hoss,
Be careful what you wish for. After a night out with the Godfather, you might need some charcoal tablets the next morning. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
