Nah, just preparing people for what may happen. Some of the UPS guys were not happy when they got sent to ANC nevermind Hong Kong. There were posts by a couple of UPS newbies somewhere on the www. that did not seem happy at all. This type of flying and particularly Hong Kong/Asia are not for every one. People just think, oh who cares, it's FedEx, what could possibly go wrong? Divorce, etc... Seemed like another planet to me Hong Kong. I also heard that being a 727 FE is tough too. I have mate who joined on that and said he nearly quit as it was horrible, winters out preflighting in DSM etc... You should really know what you are getting yourself into before just blindly applying to a company cause its a major. Just my two cents.
