You must have me confused with someone who has a dog left in the fight.....I may be USAir furloughed, but I am not returning. The seniority integration is just the last nail in the coffin.
You are correct the results stink...unless you are on the West side of the fence.
My beef is with ALPA and its lack of a defined merger policy. Oh, yes, there is a written policy. That policy, in its entirety is a nebulous outline that can be interpreted 100 different ways, all of which can say they followed policy. It uses big words like expectations, which cannot possibly be measured by anyone. Further, ALPA is a NEUTRAL, which is typical. If noone is steering the ship, noone knows where it will go or what hazards it will encounter.
My post about the AFA is just that....they know mergers happen. They know seniority is king. They merge DOH. No questions, no lawyers, no outside parties. No hearburn from expectations not being met or careers lost.
If you can look in the mirror and say that if the result was the opposite and not say it is flawed, good on you. I know for a fact that if the arbitrator would have stapled the west pilots I would be the first one standing with YOU in the line to ALPA headquarters........
Yeah,right.... Who you kidding?
