I think we all can agree that the union has not lived up to its part of deal when it comes to FDA, LOA, age 65, etc, etc. But let us say this, those guys deal with a tremendously diverse crew force and we all have out 'pet' issues. They have to balance all that junk (including some additional pressure from the national ALPA) and try and do the right thing. It may not be our favorite thing, but it should be the right thing. The age 65 law didn't make too much sense for us at FedEx because we've never been laid off, or had our pension stolen by management...but a lot of our fellow union members have. So while we may not like the law change it made sense for much of the crew force. Besides who among us can say for sure furloughs or bankruptcy 'can't happen at FedEx'. That is what quite a few United dudes were saying not too long ago.
