The long awaited excess bid letter from PC is out but it does not state anything except his typical mumbo jumbo. Overmanned in the Bus excess it and MD-11 but no numbers. Big secret still. HKG vacancies what a surprise to keep people from bidding capt for passover. I guess they do want to get into the real estate business afterall.

Yawn.....scratch......scratch.......same verse.....same as the first......a little bit louder and a little bit worse.......this light switching has been going on for two years now. It has definitely lost it's novelty.

Mandatory remarks follow:
I blame over 60
Bad Loa
DW
and.........oh heck....I don't have the energy anymore. Seems like I am being just worn out.....I can't even remember who is gonna do what......something about Obama sending me to HKG with a bad expat package and DW,WR, and DM taxing me to death to give a break to all those on the bottom 95% of the seniority list so that JetJock can have Change in his pockets I Hope.

Hope....isn't that where Bill Clinton was from when they decided Hot Springs didn't sound good enough. I feel like I am in a bad Orwell novel.

I thought I was having a bad dream....I was yelling "Essential Power" but then I just realized I was in the sim.

Could be! Looks like he might be playing the "look at this hand" game, while he is hiding the other hand behind his back. Notice he never mentioned the F word in this FCIF?

Spot on!!! I noticed no F word in the FCIF as well. What is up his sleeve?

He did use the word "mitigate", though.

He did say they intend to manage both excess manning and aircraft in such a way to minimize impact to all involved. It could be read as we are going to try and ride this out.

If they shake/scare enough senior people into HKG FO, the bottom 100-200 are easy pickings...

Did anyone see "problematic"....or "transformational" in there?

I'll have to go back and reread it!


(I wonder if anyone secretly plays "buzzword bingo" at the FEDEX Management meetings. The winner has to cough out "bull****" into his hand during the meeting once his "buzzword card" is full)
