For FedEx:
Is it true that during the last pilot contract negotiations Fred Smith threatened to fire all the pilots? If so, was he bluffing or would he really do it? What effect might this have on the upcoming 2004 contract?
For Southwest:
Prior to 9/11, for the first time ever, I heard Southwest pilots talking about the possibility of a strike in 2004 if their pay and benefits were not increased. Is there a real possibility of a strike in 2004?
I am interested in working for both companies and concerned about this issue.
