As someone on the outside looking in I'm sure I'm missing something but what was wrong with date of hire? There is talk of RELATIVE seniority but I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. I was under the impression the seniority was based on your years of service. If you had 15 yrs of service then you were senior to someone with 14yrs. Is there anyone on the list (OAC or OCP) who is now junior to someone with fewer years of service? (By years of service I mean based on their date of hire at their respective companies, either CDN or AC) I'm not trying to stir the pot on this very touchy subject, just trying to get a better feel for whats going on.
