In YOUR UNIVERSE. When you agree to a process & product of that process, you are BOUND by that process. It's the same UNIVERSE that places 517 AAA pilots in front of the #1 America West pilot. It's called FINAL & BINDING ARBITRATION for a reason. So basic in terms of INTEGRITY, that you should get it.
Cry us a river, Boo. The Arbitration Panel will look at "the Jess", and then look at the other two arguments. Gee, I wonder what decision they will deliver?
When a party REFUSES to abide by the word that their bargaining agent agreed to, that makes that party a CHEAT, a LIAR, and a THIEF. Further, the new "union" chose to persecute the smaller pilot group by any and all means. That makes that party CONTEMPTABLE.
You & your ilk will be held accountable at some time. In this existence or in the next. The AWA pilot group has simply been forced to defend our delivered seniority, and attacks on our pilot group. Wave your little flag for the delay you have gained. It has cost us all dearly.
Congratulations on your bid victories. Your ill gotten seniority fortune is just that. Delay, delay, delay.
