The info concerning hiring experience, sponsorship, and flying sim profiles is all well and good. Realistically, in light of changing retirement age to 65 and a dismal economy, and some 10,000 applicants already in line for a meet and greet, I think it will be quite some time before FDX begins hiring en mass again.

When the housing market bottoms out 12-18 mos, and then domestic and global economies return, and our retirements pick-up again 4.5 years, then you'll see FDX hire like the days of yesteryear...hopefully

Sorry your $50 went to buying a 3 year supply of coffee in our Ops Center. It works out to about .0000000003 cents a cup (and worth every cent).

Time for new bi-focals JJ. Pulling 9 g's and betting quarters on the range can be done at seperate times. If you said you liked to live life fast and fly A-10s, I wouldn't surmise that you meant the A-10 flies fast now wood eye? And yes....I just called you a wood eye!

It truly doesn't get old ever. Does ANYONE know this guy for real? Is he ok in person, or is he odd?

I've had buds at pax airlines emailing me asking me if I know this guy? They can't believe it!*? I frequently find myself asking, "WWMD" (What would Matt do?) when I find myself in difficult situations!*?

Why would you call someone with a hair lip a Peg Leg?
