Default FDX - Rumor from last stop in SFS (Dear Albie)

Dear Abby (or should I say Albie),

I heard these rumors on my last trip.

1) folks at SFS ramp said DHL is taking over our ramp there once we leave and already has a contract to do so. Our SFS locals said they got a lousy severance pkg from FedEx.

2) Between SFS and PEN ramps, heard there were problems getting taxiway's done to our Ramp at Guangbang. Had something to do with where the pilots should live, HKG or Guangbang. I guess the commies want a say in where we live too. What do they do if Guangbang won't open on time? Clark anyone?

3) I also heard the same little bird say that they are looking at a new ICAO ID for Guangbang. I'm hearing the front runners are **** or YGBSM. Also been hearing that RWY 32 will be redubbed RWY 32%.

4) The same bird told me the Twins are going to win it all this year, so my bird may be suspect.

Signed,
Confused

I'm really scared now,
because the Twins are going to win it all this year.

Thank God they got rid of that loser Santana

Twinkies may realize that they have to hit the ball now that the pitching is a bit worse

With a name like Guangbang (Gangbang SP?) is there any wonder why they don't get anything accomplished all day?

1. If FDX pays only $2700 to folks ON the team and doing their best to garner future revenue, why do you think they'd give jack to the the folks the just punted off the team? I can't confirm any of that--but it wouldn't surprise me. As for DHL...I have no idea...

2. Apparently some traction was gained on living in China by the company earlier this month. Talk to your ACP for details. Move package, etc are being firmed up by company and union on side letter. Expect no major changes.

3. Deleted in the interest of political correctness and sent to you in a PM.

4. Not true. Its year of the Redneck or Steel worker...CNN said so as Hillary and Obama try to garner the Pennsylvania white males. So I pick the Pirates or Braves or rub the NPR loving MSP folks nose in it this year...
