How does a scab gain seniority? (Honest question I don’t know)

Gained may be the wrong discription - it’s more like acquired/stolen. He’s probable talking about the CAL 83’ strike and a number of scabs were hired( SCABBED ) and maintained that seniority after the striking pilots returned later on.
There was also a reversal of seniority between the 570/539 groups after the 85’ strike and that seniority list was upheld after a couple of appeals and laws suits by the “fleet quals” and some among the 539 failed.

I know that isn't a popular sound bite but it's true. My uncle was an option 1 full term striker before any one starts throwing accusations around.
He had some interesting observations after retuning which will probably cause some consternation on here.

Thread has moved on somewhat from Joe's post earlier, but that's never stopped me before.
I had no skin in the game and was a child during both strikes. Not an airline family nor really knew any pilots.
Much later, one quote from a former co-worker at my old regional did hit home, however. He was asked a question by someone that was along these lines: "You were 8 years old. What's it matter? Where were you during the strike?"
His answer was basically, "Watching my father and my family lose everything."
