Many of us thought UPS could reach 3500 pilots. We had mgt stating their determination to win the bulk of the postal contract. We had mgt saying they'd do the postal contract at a loss just to keep it from FDX. Many of us thought that UPS simply allowed FDX to exist and could squash them at will.
Now who the he'll knows.

Family in the SDF area primarily. I had a FDX class date which I managed to reschedule twice because the pending contract at UPS was supposed to be so much better than it turned out to be. So technically I didn't leave FDX, but failed to show up for class.

Management here is merely the proverbial cog in the UPS wheel. If all of them were removed, this place would run much better, and all our guys on the street would be back on property tomorrow, that you can bank on!

The FQS "loyalty" around this place is going to fade really quick come this August. Some of these guys are absolutely clueless. When the new rest rules are implemented and they will be nothing more than "ground instructors" (along with ground instructor pay) we shall see what happens then!
I believe the cog will lose a few teeth!!
UPS is the only "Management" setup that works this way. ALL other airlines managers are actually MANAGING, flying is not something they do that much. The FAA is not going to come up with a completely different set of rest rules for UPS. No matter how much money they have.
