Either you're shining people on or you really haven't done any research over there where the grass is supposedly greener. But you'll make a lot of junior fo's happy here if you bail to fredex. And maybe you'll be able to fly with the gal with the sock puppet over there..she sounds like a hoot.
Remember, the grass is always greener over the septic tank <BG>

I'm wondering what the current junior UPS captains will do when they're displaced to a place like Anchorage. Wish they had bypassed the upgrade?

Many years ago, there was a DAL captain who would issue instructions to the f/o and s/o via a hand puppet called "Freddy the Fox". This became a source of annoyance, and one day Freddy mysteriously disappeared. A photo of Freddy in a noose was posted on a bulletin board. His owner was frantic. A chief pilot eventually put the squeeze on likely suspects and rescued Freddy the Fox, but grounded him.

So that's how they got you to "retire"?
