. . . but evidently this scope was strong enough to win the arbitration
If referring to Arbitrator Bloch's 11/08 decision, it was actually won on black and white CBA language (furlough out of seniority). This verbage clearly could not be interpreted in any other way. The FE's award was not given for violating scope. Regardless, the company is coming up way short on Bloch's carelessly worded but intended remedy, so we must again wrestle some more with AAWW management.
