The Signup Link is On!! UPS Volunteer Program
The link is hot to sign up for the volunteer programs! This is a unique chance for many of us to help the group while helping ourselves and taking a break. Something significant to truly consider. With the group volunteering airline wide, we could actually see level to forward movement in the group. With a number of retirements, VLOAs, and the Job Share, consider this..... we could see significant forward movement because there will be effectively 200-300 less guys (senior and junior guys) off the list at any given time. Interesting

I wouldn't hold my breath on many 60+ guys taking. Spoke with two the other night. One said he would retire if only the company had a decent retirement program (I assume meaning money he didn't need to save himself). The other said he was already giving up $3,000 per month so the junior guys could have a B plan...
Whatever...
