Your ugly butt is still on the property. With all this furlough talk you guys spread, there should be FDX guys lined up at the unemployment office. What, not a pilot on the street? Well, the union can't have anything to do with that!

He can't cause a furlough nor can he stop one. FE did give the company some alternatives but we know what happened to him. Giving DW credit for no furlough is like giving the rooster credit for the sunrise.

Give me a fing break. It's the negative economics of a massive realignment and abandonment of their HKG FDA that is keeping guys here. Don't give credit where it isn't due. Certainly isn't due to DW.

Funny stuff!

He now has his own reality show on TV - "So you want to be a propaganda minister!" Im not sure, but its either on MTV or PBS. I also heard he has a book deal and a forthcoming endorsement contract with lens crafters - go figure.
