UPS Reduces Profit Forecast...
#11
You know exactly what they're doing. Rag on you to not start the APU even if it's -20C in ANC or +35C in SDF and then when you taxi in watch the GPU run out of gas or try to plug it into the LAV service.

With the stock at a all time low, one would think that the company would start buying back, as much of it as possible??? I wonder if they know that its going decline further and waiting for it to bottom out before they start buying it back and make the company a private held company again. Didn't they want to do this a few years back or am I smoking a Lucky again?

Well I guess this one is pretty easy to answer! I think its because even with the decline in profits UPS will still make about 4 Billion in profits this year. Now if we start taking a loss I imagine your wish will come true! I think my time here is limited as a junior guy as I am starting to see the writing on the wall. It might not happen next week, month, or six months from now; but if the predictions of 200 dollars a barrel hold true you might be looking for a job too.

Actualy managers at other airlines come from the real pilot group (UNION) and generate revenue for thier company unlike ours that are x RJ captains and over night non revenue managment pilot. SO HOW'S ANCHORAGE THESE DAYS>

I can believe fools actually do this. I got on a plane the other day and shook the F/O's hand and he was fing sweating. You gotta be kidding me. We don't get paid to sit around in a fing sweat box. The problem, his captain! Jesus turn the air on!!!!
