Fr8-
We had guys on the street when Atlas didn't just a couple of years ago.
It's not about sharing anymore. It's about two seperate seniority lists until a combined CBA is reached. That's when the real mess will begin as sorting out furloughs out of seniority are probably going to show.
As far as a seperate list for F.E's let this be a lesson about F'ing your buddy to get what you need. What a crock of poo that was. Shame on whoever set that mess up. It's terrible to see a guy/gal with all those years of service get kicked to the curb just because he improved himself by advancing to the front of the airplane. And yes, it's bad to see anyone get kicked to the curb.
Take a pay cut upper management, middle management. That'll cut some cost. What? You're worried you can't live on a high six figure salary? Yeah, that's what I thought. Your ears all of a sudden went deaf didn't they?
And yes, I speak from experience. Three furloughs and a job loss by no fault of my own.
I wish everyone well.
