Oh, I agree.

That's why I made the point so ridiculous that even the management trolls that read this site can figure it out.

We are no longer the first, second or third choice of guys getting out of the military. We are no longer the only game in town.

The American guys just approved a JCBA that has a lot of problems but also includes HUGE pay raises. People looking to fly for an airline are not looking at FedEx as a first choice.

But our hiring department seems to be stuck in the delusional astronaut world that they enjoyed for about 3 years. Yeah, keep paying that ex-Delta weenie the big bucks to tell us how to weed out thousands of qualified people.

Oh, wait. FedEx can ONLY hire the BEST pilots because we are now giving everyone LESS training. See how that works out in the long run...
