Seniority keeps the # unless the younger one has a pole barn
Dang it! Now I gotta go over to haybucky and re-read that thread. So much for a productive Friday.

That's my all-time favorite thread. Not even the promise of getting Ray-Ray to sign with the team would be enough to overcome the family with the pole barn.
No kid's emotional make-up should be tied to a number but I think she should keep it. That said, I champion the little guy especially when it appears someone's money, daddy, or family name gets them special status. Yes I had to go and find the pole barn thread and read enough to understand.
Life isn't fair but giving up the number because someone has something sets a precedent. Show the kids that we are all equal but honey some kids are a little more equal. We all are disgusted when someone of money is brought up on charges and they mysteriously go away because of who they are. It's a number today, it's that spot in the infield, the admission into that college, the recent grad in the corner office, the fastest partner in firm history. Yes, it's only a number and she better get used to it.
Maybe life is unfair enough that getting to keep a number is the least we could do.
For what it's worth, I'm a lowly systems admin and don't have anyone trying to take my job or my number. Well maybe some person in Mumbai...
You want fair, eliminate the issue
