Be advised - doing the manifest and W&B is not work. For it to be work you would have to get paid for doing it.

Off the top of my head...

Ask why CHQ and Mesa park at CVG gates C2-C20, which makes us walk farther to get to the Comair crew bus (or station wagon, as the case may be)?

Ask why CVG is getting major facelifts (new floors in C, new food court in B, new busses, repaved employee parking) when Delta has promised to keep CVG open (which obviously means they won't)?

Ask if the jets SKW gets awarded (to pick up the terminated XJet flying) will be matched at Comair per our contract (2007 sideletter - 30% of new and unawarded aircraft)?

Who will the new CEO be when newguy's term is up in September?

When can we vote for concessions to help Delta cope with $140/bbl fuel?

Is it true the 150 CAs are being bumped back to FO because the Captain's lunches were getting too expensive?

Is Maestro still on track for a December launch for the Flight Attendants, so we can have another airline-wide Christmas vacation?

Why does the "1997-2007 anniversary" CRJ900 pull to the right during taxi?

How's the working relationship with DCI's new Chancellor, Don Bornhorst?

How long till we get the new PPAS books for cost factor 4 - the red ones, where we shut down #1 upon leaving cruise altitude?

When will CRJDriver be put in charge of selecting the new Flight Attendant uniforms?

I just flew 'roadkill' yesterday and didn't have problems, but someone did hit the right wingtip a few days ago...

Hey now, the comair test showed I had an IQ of 45. I know my attention span is not much longer then 30 seconds but it has to be after flying with some of you guys.

I guess my sarcastic sense of humor is a little too weird sometimes though.

I heard a rumor that Comair mgmt and the "Union" have kissed and made up. Has anyone else heard this?

Everyone take notice of what just one caring employee can do for the company - by selecting a more sensible uniform, CRJDriver has solved our APU issue. These flight attendants are smiling because they're never too hot at the gate in the summertime. Happy FAs mean happy customers. Besides, our passengers will be too distracted (good or bad) to notice a little thing like 100 degree cabins.

CRJDriver has also considered the TSA aspect - these uniforms will speed up the screening process and probably allow male crewmembers to wander right past the TSA agents.

Note also the matching shoes - something sorely missing with today's Comair FA dress code.

As far as roadkill, the "drag to the right during taxi" was a shot at whoever taxied the winglet into a fencepost in JFK last week.

Here's a pay question that I can't seem to find a definitive answer for in the contract.

Reserve pilot does EF. 1 flight cancels. Is the reserve pilot pay protected for the displacement?

The contract says a reserve pilot gets displacement protection after breaking guarantee. But, a reserve pilot doing EF is treated as a line holder and not a reserve.
