There was some comedian, way back, said that whenever you kidnap somebody, you should have one demand that shows you're insane.

"I want a million cash, a helicopter ride out of here and I want the letter "E" stricken from the english language....."

PBS is so out there that maybe it's just to keep our eyes off scope, deadhead banks and other stuff.

Steve Martin and the letter M stricken.

You're right Huck. That way it'll look like they threw us a bone.

Not sure at all what the fear is here.

The union (thankfully) has flatly said "NO". They aren't even entertaining any discussions on the subject.

Let it die.

Default Death to PBS

Folks,

I have begged, pleaded. and cajoled in the past for you to fight PBS with your last dying breath.

After my FedEx career, I have spent 5 years with PBS at DAL. I feel qualified to tell you that allowing PBS on the property is the single worst thing you could do to every aspect of your career.....junior or senior makes no difference.

I won't bore you with the details, but pm me if you wish a detailed explanation of my thoughts.

For you, Cloud,
BG

That's a nice, concise way of summing it up.

@FedElta, thank you for obliging

Cloud,

What communication from the Union did you receive this in? I haven't seen anything.
