If YOU want a shred of credibility around here, show us that you have the ability to read.

Well I asked sailingfun to re-read his post and to correct his errors. He's chosen instead to go into the witness protection program and come back only after people have forgotten. Again. Here is sailingfun's statement:

...Try making your statement that the average SW copilot makes far more then the average Delta Captain before the board.
I've really emphasized the key word that sailingfun simply couldn't seem to find was in error. Here is what I actually said:

A senior 747 captain makes 37,000 per year more than the AVERAGE SWA copilot. Now compare that to an MD88 Captain here at the Delta Ticket Brokerage Company who makes 161 per hour and that equates to 135,200 per year. So, the AVERAGE SWA copilot makes 10,000 per year more than an MD88 Captain at the Delta Ticket Brokerage Company.

We'll never get better if you keep making excuses for this sailingfun. This is reality and you need to get used to it...not accusing others of losing credibility.

Notice how I didn't say what sailingfun was so angry about? I did not compare the average SWA copilot to the average DAL captain. Rather I compared the average SWA copilot to an MD88 captain at DAL. But that didn't stop old sailingfun, even after I asked him to re-read his posts. Instead, he just laid out the same false premise...even louder:

Sadly after having it up only 5 minutes I had to pull my bet post with Carl after being told you can't gamble here. I could have used the money. I ask again CARL to produce numbers backing your statement the AVERAGE COPILOT at SW make more then the AVERAGE CAPTAIN at DELTA...

...What I am saying is that you lose all credibility when you make statements like THE AVERAGE SW COPILOT MAKES WAY MORE THEN THE AVERAGE DELTA CAPTAIN.
Hard to command the credibility high ground when someone points out the error in your posts, and you refuse to correct it. Instead, you just say it louder.
