I bet you eat Taco Bell, Wendy's, and all that other $6 meal cheap processed crap food. Gonna make it to 65?
And you probably are a 'slam clicker'.

So let me get this straight- if you DON'T spend EVERY dollar of your per-diem while on the road, you're an unhealthy slam-clicker? I think I understand your logic now, of course it's not income if you live like Bernie Madoff on your layovers...
Myself, I plan to exercise some self control (don't have much of a choice), and I have had a good time on the majority of my layovers.
