Some people will bust their hump regardless, because there's never enough money.

When I watch the UPS contract Comparison video, I learn that at least one industry B plan includes cash over cap and continuing contributions if you're out on disability.

Don't have clue 1 as to whether or why UPS FDA amounts are substantially cheaper in associated costs compared to our A plan (30 yr UPS Capt Pension cap almost equivalent to our 25 year Capt (or FO) plan) but it's surely something I hope our hired guns are checking into.

I would like to think FedEx Mgt is smart enough to look around the industry and realize that we are going to be competing for a diminishing pool of pilots and adjust\tweak\improve our retirement plans prior to CBA 2022\23.

Then I reread my statement and consider how many other things I'd like to think FedEx is smart enough to do....
