[P]TPA layoffs CS will take inside agents back to early 84 (FT) in seniority and mid 87 (PT) in seniority this time. With these furloughs TPA will have about 18 FT on furlough or downgrade and 25-30 part timers on furlough. This is in addition to about 8-10 people who have retired in the last year. Express agents will be gone totally in TPA (Piedmont) in Nov so add in about 30? or so there.[/P]
[P]The cuts are about to where they were back in 93 agent wise (same agents FT downgraded to PT) when they started to dismantle the Florida Shuttle and hire Express agents.[/P]
[P]We've come a long way in the past 9 years! [/P]
