Picking a spouse is way more important decision.

Covid-19 perhaps?

Or choosing to not have one. Even better.

You know what I meant. Kick someone when they are down. Our Legacy colleagues may suffer much come fall, no reason to gloat or spike the football.

Fedex is a shrinking airline - yes we will have some good growth (but not nearly as good as some think on this board) for the next few years but we have less pilots today than a year ago and we will have less pilots in 5 years from now than we did 10 years ago.
Tuck, would you like to change anything in this prediction you posted? How did this comment age?

Why are some of you doing this? It's tacky, disrespectful, and embarrassing. Please stop.

Noworkallplay, do you have any friends? Please stop. But to double down on Tuck's comments, I bet he's write. I bet that in five years Delta will have total better pay and benefits. They already are equal to FedEx assuming they take no concessions during this COVID19 down turn. But they will bounce back and in five years they'll be back stronger and bigger than FedEx.

Ironic, you're talking down Delta while in other threads talking down FedEx pilot's ability to get a good contract. News Flash: you're the problem.
