I just bought more stock.
After all the BILLIONS the company just saved with the newly passed TA and a pilot contract for the next 5 years at least I can supplement my ridiculous COLA with stock gains. More than one way to skin a cat!

Old news, Fred Smith doing what he does best by playing hardball.
When Congress started making noise about possibly changing the way FedEx operates (ie no longer under the RLA) in order to make it easier for our drivers to unionize, Fred told Washington DC that the orders for all those shiny new expensive American-made freighters would disappear if the law changed.
With the change in House leadership, I expect those 777 orders to go through.

Then turn around and cancel the program to furlough anyway !
