Default O's Safe Skies

Just got my Safe Skies
I unwrapped the laminated pack with the glee of a 5 year old boy at Xmas...Loved the glossy color copy (good thing we are double siding releases in AOC to help pay for this)...then I read O's welcome message that had this as its closer.

"Will we travel the same road as Pan Am and Eastern, or will we make our legacy a long and prosperous one? The choice is ours..."

After 4 cocktails, I cant even do justice the the inherent flaws in the parallels he is attempting to draw. Fire away.

Is he saying our Management is as flawed as those two???

Gosh, Maybe he will be "choosing" to return to the line soon...

The mental gymnastics he is doing to justify (to us or himself?) management's actions must be wearing on him.

Come on, we need to give him a break. I am sure the real meaning of his message is simply lost in translation (Cuban I bet, haha).

In one of the last red letters it was with or without you. So which is it?

Quit reading his drivel with the mano y mano throwdown. My brain isn't big enough to unravel all of his ESL gymnastics.

I am in no way a managment apologist. In fact, I generally take issue with almost everything fedex managment does.

But, I find this haphazard linking of crewmember dissatisfaction with "O" to his cultural heritage offensive. I try to not write anything that I would not say in person.
