The box with "CP" had two dried-up rolls and several rolled up slices of meat and a disgusting hard-boiled turd [egg]. The others had croissants filled with scrambled turds. On other flights, the BS boxes were filled with turd rollups. Yuck!
I was wondering about that too and came to the conclusion that "BS" was Breakfast Snack and "CP" was Captain. On the 727, we always have 1 CP and 2 BS and assume that since we all can't eat the same meal, the CP's were different.
Question for the 2 man cockpits...do you guys get one that says CP and one BS? Or are they both BS?
While we are on this subject, what can we do to improve our catering? Its so bad that I stop for a Subway on the way to work every night so I have someting to eat. I'd rather have taxed per diem for out-n-backs than try to choke down an egg salad wrap or strawberry crepe.
How hard would it be to get ham or turkey on a hoogie roll?
