Original post is gone but someone needs to buy OGarmy a beer. Fantastic. Yes voters hearing that this place isn’t the cat’s meow hurts some feelings but that was just funny.

This place is jetflyers uncensored.

if FedEx goes out of business, they’ll be a lot bigger problems than losing your pension…

This place is not that bad if you want to fly when normal people are sleeping, get paid below industry standard, have daily rigs below industry standard, constant revisions to your schedule, a sub system when the company decided to cancel your bid on trips, move to memphis.....but hey you have to consider the value of the "pension".....

Since many consider international flying to be the best flying, are you willing as a new hire to bet FedEx Pilots will be flying internationally 10 or 20 years from now? Choose wisely.

You are odd. I do understand pensions and mentioned PBGC. Lay off the booze before you post.

Pays better than BizEx/Connie and the checks do not bounce. So, yeah!
