Gunter,

You really don't get it, do you? Being junior at any airline sucks. And you can be sure that being junior at FedEx doesn't suck any more than it does at Delta, American, UPS, etc, etc. Most passenger carrying airlines feature 3 or 4 departures a month, for a much larger percentage of their crew force, and why would you bother to mention the "30-45 hour carryover lines?" Everyone knows, perhaps except you, that being senior at an airline comes with some perks, while being junior doesn't offer those same good deals. Didn't anyone ever tell you that life isn't always fair?
