I expected razzing. In fact, I welcome it. Never been told that I sound like a dolt before. It has sort of a ring to it! Nor have I heard The United States of America referred to as Bubba Land. Not trying to get into a forum p1$$ing contest. Just saying that, given the stellar luck I have had thus far in my career, I am probably the guy who's seniority will draw the Guam position on day one. I am sure you have been furloughed and struggled to feed your family and completely understand our frustration. Again, an American airline sending their pilots to live and fly out of a far off distant land doesn't sit right with me. But that is just me. Sounds like it works for you non-Bubba Land types, mate.
Yours truly,
Bubba the Dolt
