You come home and your dog bites you and the kids say "Who is that mama?"

....You put your dirty clothes (Darks and Whites) into one washing machine in a foreign country and stare in horror when your passport comes to the front of the washing machine glass and all you can do is sit there and watch it spin for an hour till the cycle is complete.

Default You might be ACMI

If you believe you're only worth ACMI rates and less than standard industry contracts. ACMI is a term ALPA uses as an excuse for not doing their job as a union!
