I am sure you accepted the B Scale like the class act you are. That is why it is gone because everyone accepted it. When your logic is flawed go on the attack.

Don't like this thread? It easy to ignore.

When I got hired if you wanted the job, you accepted B-scale wages. Its called a "condition of employment."

You're free to quit FedEx anytime you want. There are plenty of furloughed pilots out there willing to take your place.

Grow up and quit whining.

And what you are missing is thanks to Age 60 I have had 13 months of B scale.

So what happened to your B Scale if all you old timers took it like a man?

What ever happened to the "Killer B's", anyway? Are they now the "A Killers"? As in "A" plan.

Yah, that's it...How come all the conspiracy theorists never picked up on that? The Killer-B's finally got their revenge on the old A-scale guys by agreeing to get rid of their pensions.

Just post a copy of your FedEx resignation letter if you're so fed up. We'd all love to see that, but we won't hold our breath. Until then, just be happy they don't relocate the window heat and the pitot heat to the F/E panel so you'll still have a job.

When you got hired the retirement Age was also 60. It was called a "condition of employment." Then when it was time to retire, the Greediest Generation had it changed so they could get more years at the top at the expense of every pilot junior to them, especially furloughed pilots. Instead of telling others to grow up and stop whining (words ignored by those fighting for the Age change) why don't you take your pension and retire?

To quote an over 60 FedEx flyer we all know.. If you have a pension waiting and are still flying (working until August for free essentially under 4a2b).."You're the problem!"

Just so we are all clear. It is ok for anyone else in the corporation to squeeze profits to enhance everyone's individual bottom line, except for pilots. You are a piece of work and will be a great asset to 'us' during negotiations. Let me guess, you got yours?

Oh and BTW, age 60 was a "condition of employment" when I was hired, but the old guys did not like it so they got the other old guys on the hill to change the rules of the game after tipoff. Must be nice to be in the driver's seat.

Maybe you should be the next SCP since you are convinced that, in the words of Tracy Bonham, everything's fine.

Question: How do you know when someone's lost a debate on APC and is foundering helplessly without substance to contribute?

Answer: They whip out the ever-popular "if you don't like it you should just quit" line.

Hilarious. I think the apoplectic FishFreighter has used about 16 iterations of it now!

Mom Note:

Ok, that's it! This thread started out as about that annoying Captain (there are so many of them these days. ) and it's morphed irretreivably into something else. So I'm going to close it and everyone take a cold shower or whatever.
