For goodness sake the lords of pprune and the seniority lists urging people to "hang in there" , easy to do when your position is highly likely safe
or putting forward the view "it's all a big bluff" or "call AIPA - they have all wisdom & knowledge"
The deadline for LWOP is less than 4 weeks away so you won't get to do an analysis of VR before making a decision
Assume this LWOP window is the only one you will get
Or "hang in there" continue to accrue your ever so precious entitlements (its all about the entitlements !) then get a larger payout when CR does fall on
your low seniority number. So you walk out the door with more annual leave dollars , more long service leave dollars and the 3 months CR payout dollars , and the
3 or 4 weeks for each year of service & be proud that you didn't give an inch of your "entitlements". But also understand that you will only be re-employed when QF
opens employment and that will likely be ten years away
