FDX "flame on!"

Anyone else think "O" reads these boards? Next thing you know we'll start seeing "IMHO" and "FWIW" in O-grams.

Wow "O" must follow these threads pretty close considering the points he hit on in the O-gram. Wonder what his screen name is? y"O"da ??? J/K

It's not a secret that flight management reads these boards. Most people find the posts entertaining and informative.

As a reminder, no one is anonymous on here. Remember who your audience is before you start "flaming".

I am sure he has no problems getting on the union boards (as he is a member), but why would he want to? No information there.

I was being sarcastic. It is the biggest pain in the a$$ to just get to the alpa boards, then to navigate them. Just not user friendly. Too much for my simply monkey/switch flipping mind to handle. My point was, it takes a bit of time to get to those pages and navigate. This is easy and everything on here is True. Sarcasm off. That is why we don't hear from him.

On another note, not that I am giving him credit... I am sure he is a smart man. I would not want to be in his shoes.

APC does not give names out. How many people do you know that post on here? I like to think it's similar to the degrees of separation to "Kevin Bacon" (Someone tells someone else, etc.). Word gets around and before you know it, half the APC community knows who you are. I wouldn't post anything on here that you're not willing to go into the ACP's office and tell him directly.

Just keep repeating to yourself...I like my job...I'd like to keep my job...I would never say anything bad about my job....

Mbobbrm?

For years we've know we were being managed by MBO (management by objective).

Does this now mean we're being MBOBBRM (management by bulletin board rumor mill)? Priceless ...
