It is a city in Utah popular with rockcrawlers, but that's not important right now.

In military parlance it is "Mother Of All Bombs"...in the airline world, it is "Mother Of All Bids".

Which leads to the question, what would a MOAB look like at a trucking company with jets ?

It appears UPS usually puts out Vacancy Bids out on friday afternoons. That is from recent history bids.

So I would say yes. 72 upgrades? I will wait another 5 years for the 777 bid. lol-

747 too loud and old technology cockpit. not impressed.

Interesting.. a couple of guys who went to the recent ANC meeting got the impression the bid would be coming out on the 16th? ..or maybe they meant BY the 16th?

Either way, good to be talking about hiring again..
