Give the guy a break eh.

I agree that any off shore contract should be looked at carefully. I would be very much concerned about crewing agencies with no credit; not that many have any to begin with (if this is sweet then it's with the Airline proper as I understand it). But, I'd be very careful in thinking that my position was sacred, even at the best of the western employers. Yea, I don't get the FedEx/UPS comment, perhaps a bit pessimistic considering the company kept. But, good profitable airlines around the world are starting to look at their options. The actions of corporate America as of late have proven that nobody is really safe when the ivory towers bonus is on the line. But hey, if your solid then your solid. . . right.

Look, maybe the comment about FedEx/UPS/World wasn't on the mark, but give him a break. For all you know he could be offering information that could be of help, to you, in the near future.

The offshore contract world is very different from what one might be used to at a major carrier, but it might be a nice lifeline for those who are in need at the time.

My last thought; if you all are so secure in your jobs, then why are you looking here, at this thread, in the first place. . . let alone commenting on a post like this. Bored?

If your looking or concerned, then talk to the guy. As rotorhead so eloquently instructed me, if you don't like it ignore it.

But hey, you guy's have nothing to worry about, so why even mention it.
