Purple is all Fred Smith. I believe he's had 4 heart attacks. He won't be at the helm forever. His next replacement could be a Leo M. who might ask why are we paying this much to our guys? They've had a great run. But nothing stays up forever. If you leave to chase the money, would you still be happy working there without a pension or a frozen one and pay in line with the legacies? I'm happier not chasing the money. It's like trying to find the best time to get in on Apple stock.
