Say goodnight Gracie.

Dude:

What is it with UPS...it's almost like they WANT to hold onto the '88 guys they claim to hate so much...very odd. But if everyone who didn't contribute the first round does even ONE lousy RDG they may take the money and we can get past this...or not. :confused:

I seriously have my doubts that we'll make the 40 million required to postpone this threatened furlough. Many Capts that I fly with get a "deer in the headlights" look on their face when I tell them I'm taking a VLOA for six months. "What's that?" is the most common question following said look on their faces.

As for a furlough actually happening...who knows? I'll be watching from the sidelines. Good luck all.

Archie,

If UPS furloughs, I hope those same captains have the "deer in the headlights" look from the right seat.

Sheeeeeeeesh. Will everyone please be a team player and sign up for some kind of rdg or js so ups can take the savings on the golden platter to Scott Davis and rest of the board memebers for thier end of the yr bonus distributions. Today is thanksgiving and is a day for all of us to come together and try to save our ceo's 650% raise for next 3 yrs and be more giving to the people that provide such a tremendous job security for our pilots and mechanics SPECIALLY THE BOTTOM 300. This place s.........x bad.:rolleyes:
