Hi Jim. To respond to your question, the bumping process is all about geography and cronyism, not seniority. The nearer you are to TUL/AFW the more susceptible to you are to being bumped. The company and union always make special deals to allow TUL/AFW folk to stay "close to home". It happened in 2003 and it's happening now. In another weird twist, there are 95 openings at ORD and 60+ at JFK, while 60+ are being RFD,d at DFW, in addition to the 80+taking the buyout. Something stinks...."
Kenny powells "rif update title 1" email sent on Monday 11/12 is very touching. Especially touching is the quote from mother Teresa. Didn't know you were so loving. It's posted every where in dfw.
Headed to DWH.
