Does that mean if you had been on a 3 year sabbatical you would lose those 3 years off of your seniority/length of service?
Yes - the period on sabbatical does not count for seniority. See Philty Phil's post above which quotes the relevant part of the Way Forward Agreement.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
