As long as we’re discussing futures, how’s the DEI culture at UAL working out so far?

Their stock is up ~22% in the last 5 days.

That’s because it had tanked earlier this year. Meanwhile, ours is near its all time record high.

Ours is at a record high because the company is buying back $10 billion in stock and laying off anyone they can

OURS. yeah right. you might own a handful of stock, but this company ain’t OURS, and so long as you keep thinking this way we, us, and not them, will continue down this dark and winding road. I don’t care how many hands the man shakes, THEY have nothing but disdain for the very group that delivers this so-called purple promise. Now I get that we need them, but they need us just as much, and it’s high time we remind them of this fundamental truth.

It’s not at a record high. It was even higher before the company announced it was buying back shares and laying off employees.

When you look at your ID badge and your W2 what company name do you read? What’s on the tail of the last airplane you flew? Hate to break it to you, but you are a FedEx employee, and you will be until you walk out the door.
Until that great day happens, you sound like a battered wife. Owned and abused but you can’t seem to step away. Instead, you come on here and whine and make useless boasts about how we’re really going to show ‘em now. Yeah. We’re really showing ‘em. We’ve almost got our NC reformed just in time to resume contract negotiations after the NMB blew off our request to be released. Should be getting new lanyards any day now. And maybe we could picket Wall Street again. If last time is any gauge that will push our stock price to an actual new high. That will really teach “THEY” a lesson.

We will never agree on what it means to work for fdx. you see it as an identity, whereas I see it as a means to pay bills and save a little money and maybe see some new sights. you eat the pizza and laugh with the execs who are actively working to optimize your time and energy, whereas I’d rather fast than spend a minute in their presence. you whine about how we blew it with the TA, whereas I (and the majority) are fighting against concessions, which, by the way, would have had little impact on senior dbags like you. and we will show them nothing with crybabies like you who put pride first and unity second. the great day is when the old guard mentality retires, not those fighting for the future of this workforce. i bet everyone you meet knows what you do and who YOU work FOR.
and the tail I last flew was your moms.
