Finally I agree...a very positive milestone!

Is that the light at the end of the tunnel...or the train?

Although I am not a purple guy, I think I hear the train coming for both the FEDEX and UPS junior guys. Anyone have the number to that trucking company that might be hiring out of work pilots?

I just didn't think it was cool to put a smiley face at the end of a comment suggesting UPS and FedEX are about to furlough.

I don't care what boat he may be in and/or what grade(s) I did or did not complete.

Furloughs just aren't that funny.

Now, would that be to cancel before or after it is supposed to close?

I guess we'll find out in tomorrow.

Well of course after the bid closes, how else are they going to scare the junior guys into bidding it. Typical scum-bag tactics we are coming to expect from such a highly respected fortune500 company.

I made a similar "Fortune 500" comment with regards to our ex-pat packet (too small to call it a package).

I was quickly corrected that we are actually a "Fortune 100" company. Guess that makes the whole thing even worse!
