FedEx updates

[AlbieF15]

Several big new things at FDX...

CDG overseas bid is cancelled.

DC-10s phased out Feb 2009 vice Dec 2009.

Displacement bid is coming...some "backwards progression" is assumed in the outcome.

Not good news...but still hangin' tough.

 

[PositiveRate]

Apparently our industry is void of good news these days....

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

So, should we put off taking the FE written since it is only good for two years?

 

[HoursHore]

By the time we start hiring again there will be no engineer positions at FDX

That's good news...

Heard the only way FE is going to be able to get people to Hong Kong and Paris is to hire off the street... They cant Jr man people to those domiciles

Is there any talk of ever making IND a crew base?

Heard you dislike military pilots as they regularly fly on boondogles to get Barbeque.

Montgomery Inn near CVG (down the road from Wright Patterson) is the best BTW.

You mean the Wright-Pat? Different part of Ohio....

That's what the Air Force guys claimed and I agree with them.

Rendevous in MEM might give them a run for their $$.

Not to ruin the intelligent banter about barbeque...

...but I smell furlough. Saving my shekels.

 

[Cooperd0g]

Damn! I just wasted good money on FE prep and the test. Scored a 99 also. I was hoping for some winter "off the street" hiring for the FDAs.

Not sure about furloughs.... that would be new for Fred?

 

[Rusty Nail]

I just got out of recurrent and "o" still said no furlough.

 

[av8tor4239]

Heard the Paris base was canceled.. announced today

No it's not... UPS will still make an over $4 BILLION profit for 2008!

 

[Papa Woody]

DARN!

I just wasted $6,000.00 to change my name from "Andersen" to "Rodriguez" so I could get hired, now the doors are closed.

DARN!
