And why would we want our Next CBA to run through 2030? Are you assuming it's going to take 4-5 years to get that 6k FDA value? And is the FDA value the same for FO's here at FedEx or is it the roughly 75% value UPS has?
6k per year for Capts (assuming you wanted it capped at 25)
4.5k for FOs
OK, now I'm confused
Now I’m confused? An A fund that pays out $150k is a 20k gain.
I’d love the option that he proposed. Take the Flat dollar $150k at 25 years (or 6k/year if you retire with less) or elect to freeze what you have and transfer to the VB plan. Keep the same high five formula. Sold.
Makes most people happy. Very simple idea, but would be a yes for me. I’d take the FAE. If I left with 20 years, I’d walk with $120k. Good enough for me.
