OK, here goes. This will be my last post on anything at all related to the Age 60 thing. After this, I'm going to try to just be content with reading all of your comments about it.

1. I've never told any of you how to lead your lives. Frankly, I could care less how you do it, just so long as when we are/were flying FedEx jets, you do it in a professional manner.

2. If you want to work until you're a hundred, or retire next month at age 45, both work for me.

3. If someone wants to work past 60, and the contract says it's ok, then maybe it's ok. If it effects you adversely, get it changed. Certainly you all should have the ability to effect that change with the union. After all, you're in the majority, aren't you?

4. I firmly stand by my statement "Regardless of whether it affects you or not, it's not your business. You do not get to decide how others lead their lives". What I was saying here is that what others choose to do with their lives, as long as it's legal, and causes no harm, is neither your concern, nor your responsibility to try to change said lifestyle. And please don't tell me that because it effects you financially, you have that right, because as someone else here said, if that were the case, you'd be trying to talk anyone senior to you out of upgrading and "taking your slot.", or at minimum, bad-mouthing them for doing so.

Well, obviously I could go on for hours, but it's time for my nap. But before I go, I want to share one last word of wisdom, this specifically is directed to V1 oh, no: When you dress up, try to remember to wear matching socks.

JJ Out!
