haha...like I said I didn't ask.....but they came at a time of fast upgrades so I'm thinking they upgraded within that same year or 2 while the other guys waited for total time to be eligible. But we are straying from the tool topic someone's gonna scold us....

There are a few retired FDX guys running around at the regionals... they've got their pensions and are doing that as a retirement job.

I guess I need to add the FO in DTW doing a walk around with a large Starbuck's in hand! I can say with confidence it wasn't a Comair FO so do the math! We don't do enough flying to afford Starbuck's anymore!

And they usually get the job there set up on the fast track to a management position.

O.K. still can't get over the "$20 bill & a clean shirt for a 4 day trip and never had to change either one" crowd. Are these people frugal NewEnglanders or do they teach these "skills" on boats in the U.S.N.?

It was always rumored that one of my colleagues brought burnt out light bulbs from home to exchange from hotel rooms and stole the extra T.P. but I could never confirm.
