Maybe then will young FO’s start to feel welcome at the company they’ve spent their whole life trying to get hired at.

Oh, and stop calling it at “jet.” It’s OK to go with the release just on the iPad, you don’t need all that paper anyway. Lay off the popcorn, those simple carbs are bad for you. Fox News is fake news and not everyone cares about your guns and Sean Hannity infatuation.

Best job ever!!! So far everyone I’ve met since day 1 has been friendly and super professional. Of course I did spend 9 years in the military and 10 years at a regional so maybe I perceive things differently. And I’m not a millennial

My experience has been nothing but positive at FedEx. This thread addresses the 5%. We have both Captains and FOs that fit into that category but so does every other company.
