Bus remember, only moves, no drops for X-mas.

As for my seat, they don't have enough reserves to cover half of the lines. If ONE of the international guys goes sick, they have to get a "volunteer" to fill it! Not one of the reserve lines covers any of their trips. I just hope for our sake there isn't a winter event this year...

Well no. That is not the answer to my question. As a matter of fact, "not yours" is just dumb. This is an OPEN forum.

I thought he answered your question pretty clearly. Is he talking about your airline?

The very original question, "which airline?" is just hilarious!! A real knee slapper!

Not sure why it's funny for a guy from World to come on here and keep asking "which airline" in the FedEx threads. I know the reasoning but it reminds me of the little kid in the backseat that just keeps repeating "are we there yet?"

I cant remember what type of envy Fraud called it. Psyc 101 was 30+ years ago. It had a catch name though.

A) I was formerly employed by World. B) No, you don't know the reasoning. My reasoning is that too many of you FDX'ers thinks this is a FDX forum by default. It is not. One that starts a FDX thread should put that in the subject line. It's just common sense.

However, with you as a FDX employee, I don't expect expect you to be unbiased.

Yes, you're correct in that posters who start threads about FDX stuff, should put FedEx in the subject line. That said, after a few posts it usually becomes obvious which airline or company is being talked about. But, I'm not telling you anything you don't already know.

I have decided to not include FDX in my FDX threads and put Not FDX in my Not FDX threads. It would save a lot of 1 & 0s if everyone did the same thing. Think of the energy savings. The ocean temperatures could drop by .000000000000000013 degrees; or about twice as much as the kyoto protocols have saved to date.

If you open a thread and it doesn't apply to you, you could simply move on to the next. It will cost you a couple of clicks of the mouse.

Yes, it is a public forum. It isn't asking too much to put the airline in the subject line, however, it doesn't really require a "which airline" comment every time someone fails to do so.

There are probably more FDX posts than other cargo carriers because of the number of pilots that work here. Or maybe it's the free internet on layovers.
