Of course there will be good news. UPS will not furlough anybody for some time thanks to the tremendous volunteerism of the strongest pilot union in the country

We should be proud of what we've accomplished.

I really hope you are right. But, I will believe it when I see it. Standing by with unemployment paperwork.

Nice rumor, but I'm not getting my hopes up, I'll just wait and see. I hate setting myself up for a big disappointment, so I'm just taking everything as it comes right now.

Brownie-

Do you have reliable information or just speculating? I think you are probably right, would be stupid of them to furlough with the savings presented. Altho you can't spell stupid without UPS!

I would guess that they are still working on it because there are still some things to work out.

How's that for an answer. OTOH, the fact that they are still working on it is good, that means its not dead yet. I'm a half full kinda guy. Of course some would say that I totally full of it.
