"I don't know how we are going to survive on only FE pay when he turns 60 in a few months. We won't be able to make ends meet and pay the mortgage with only that and his military retirement ..."
There's your proof ...

what about VEBA - 50 cents an hour is given up for nice pots of money for those reaching a certain age....now they can work - and be covered/pay for regular medical coverage - for 5 more years. where's all that money going? are they going to push the age up 5 years to get it?

So long! Unless you're resigning from FDX, we'll enjoy your 1.95% long after you've left ALPA.
