Or will I get the first half when I come back and the second half in Jun 07? Hmmmm.

I think it's moot anyway. Looks like my orders will be extended til Jan 09. No bonus for me until we're in negotations again.
Hey Magnum, did you volunteer for this "good deal" or was it thrust upon you.

Does it matter? And when did he say it would be a "good deal?" There's lots of guys with "good deals" sitting in the desert right now, both voluntary and involuntary. But, again, what does it matter? Not sure what your perspective is or what you're trying to get at, but it comes across as a little anti mil leave. What's your point?

My Guard unit was BRAC'd. We are involuntary switching airplanes and bases. I'm not a new hire, I did the first year pay, I'm losing money by going on 2 yrs of MLA, and I have to move. The training incurs a 2 yr commitment.

You tell me if it's a "good deal." How does it affect you, anyway? If I'm junior, no sweat. If I'm senior, good for you.

At any rate, since my new jet will be the F-22, I'll say it's a good deal that I'm looking forward to. I'm only 33, so FDX will get it's pound of flesh outta me over the next 27 years. I like both my jobs and work hard at both of them. I'm grateful FDX is accomodating of Mil Leave, and I don't game the system. Hope to see you on the line someday in the Bus.

Jesus, you guys are touchy. "Good Deal" in quotes indicates sarcasm. But, then perhaps you guys are feeling guilty about something. And I've done lots of time in Saudi, so get off the "Anti-military" crap.

Default mil pay

Fedex guys...

Does Fred make up the difference in your mil pay and you fedex pay? Brown pays the difference for a year, which at least helps out some..

........ and it's one of the most shameful policies of the company. How do our "patriotic" management people shave in the morning?

They used to pay the difference for your 2 weeks of AT but we as a group gamed the system so much that it was taken away on our first contract.
