How do we determine DOH, Is it based on when we were hired at our last carrier? Or is it when we got on with our first airline? Which airlines would those include? For instance if I was hired at AA in summer of 98 and a COEX pilot was hired a month before me, do they hold a more senior number? What about my time at the companies I flew before AA while the COEX pilot was a flight instructor, some ALPA, other non-union. I agree that we need to head in this direction but where do we intergrate at? When we held out ATP, or commercial license?
Just curious as to your observations.

Yeah I know, I was thinking about that as I was writing the post. I'm sure there would be 1000 other questions or situations that would arise maybe even making the idea impossible in the end. But on paper without the "start-up" mess I think it would wonders for the job security of a pilot career. I'd venture to guess that once you got 20% or like ten years of pilots under you, you could expect to be pretty secure. You just may have to move up or down depending on the cycle. I don't know anyway, it was just a thought.
