Hopefully there will be enhancements to retirement.....i.e. B-plan % bump or higest 3 instead of highest 5..........more 401 fund choices.

Rhetorical question............( for all FDX pilots)

Do you prefer to agree on a deal in the next 2 months ot the next 16?

If guys would llok long term instead of near term..............you get the drift.

I can look myself in the mirror and know I am doing 100% to get a good contract..............and I haven't got my High 5 yet!
The 90% I mentioned was just a number, like the previous 90%. I also have no idea what that number is, but management does. These self starting job actions are self defeating. When you yell no draft, no volunteer, no vacation sell back, and it flops. What message have you sent management?

A large number of pilots do not have long term. Any enhancement of the "B" plan contribution is pocket change to them. Get the drift?
