Penske truck rental

Tulsa will be laying off 2100 people which is 40% of its work force. AA is also shutting down AFW in Fort Worth. AA is wanting to outsource all of its heavy maintenance to overseas maintenance sites. No way I'm going to work for a company that doesn't care about its employees. So adiós AA!!!

I'll be working on corporate jets in Tucson. Non-union and the starting pay will be 20% more then I'm getting now. Plus they pay for school so I can go back to college and get a degree.

Where do you work? I thought you worked for AA in Tulsa also???

Fedex. Line. In Lubbock.

Regardless of what happened with Tulsa and bankruptcy. I was looking to get out.

Glad to hear you guys are going to make it ok.. I have the seniority (26 yrs)to stay in T-town,, but am considering a couple options overseas. it would only be for maybe 5 years, but that would be enough... I work in WB QC.

Yes, be aware that the efficiency of box trucks is really important. 10mph can cost you hundreds of dollars in fuel.

Time flies when your having fun, but it ain't fun anymore


Worked as a "Systems" mech on the DC-10's, 767's and A-300's before going into the QC Dept in 2000..



Safe trip and the best of luck!!

not second guessing you on the price, but are you sure the penske is cheaper than uhaul? Penske usually rapes you on mileage fees but a one way might not work that way. Just be sure you are aware of ALL the costs.....and uhaul has diesels available if you ask.

Penske is unlimited miles one way and 200 dollars less.
