But, that wasn’t what you meant and you clarified that now.

Somewhere on this board someone was saying they made 757 capt at FedEx in 28mo. True?
Speaking of pay FedEx is in negotiations in what 2yrs? Brown to follow. No big deal the whole industry is cyclical eventually it all comes around.
Oh and my past comment, no offense. Brown and Purple have two distinctly different cultures. Not saying one is better its just two different ways of doing a task.

FedEx absolutely not gonna relax the requirement. Just not in thier mentality.
UPS is a trucking company, FedEx is a branch of the military falling somewhere between the USAF & USN.

I actually enjoyed very much our new hire ride along and the big emphasis on community involvement, as opposed to being the title sponsor of one of the most elitistic sports.

I happen to think flying boxes is the way to go for a variety of different reasons (just not at Atlas!).
To each his own.
Back to the original post, has anyone heard of FedEx dropping the 4 year requirement? I know it's not a hard requirement at UPS...
