You guys need to go out in force over the next few weeks in the area of the incident with your maglites and randomly bash any frenchies head that you see that look like they might have been part of it. Or maybe if they are just french in general. And when your standing over them yell "THIS IS HOW WE ROLL B!0CH!!" Then throw up your Fedex gang sign and run.

I hope he gets well soon.

If you've logged onto the company system you should have gotten the email, discussing the incident in Paris. Although it's a few days late, it does show that they actually know what went on, and make sound recommendations as to our welfare on the road. Better late than never.

The recommendations aren't late! They've been made many times!

I wasn't talking about the recommendations being late. I was talking about the message of the attack being late. I probably should have constructed the paragraph a little better. Sorry.

I don't think that was an unreasonable delay, considering they probably wanted to make sure the information was accurate and complete before they put out an FCIF.

I wonder if there is more to this than our guy is letting on. I'm not suggestion that it's his fault... even if he talked about the guys momma, a beat down is still over the top, but just curious if he had some interaction with this guy at some point which set him off. I guess we may never know since it sounds like our guy never got a look at him during the attack.

Hopefully Capt. K has speedy and full recovery.

Any crewmember on any revenue trip, who injured for any reason at all, including during legal rest, should receive the best medical care available, and business/first class commercial ticket to his home.

What if it had been a crew van accident? Slipped in the shower and broke something? Sounds like a vicious beating after dinner is being treated as an exception. It shouldn't be.
