And the furloughs stopped the next day. Thank God your voice was heard and the ceo spoke to you personally.

Anyway most people complain like it's a sport and are looking for team effort. Conversely the cheerleaders want a pep rally. None of it really matters, let's just move on to more chicken puns.

 

Am I supposed to have more respect for a "4th floor mouthpiece cheerleader" who makes inroads to address perceived/real deficiencies, or forum bellyaching and chicken puns?

 

Eggcellent idea

 

I mean- *looks around*- chicken puns right? I'm not belly aching, just here for the dad jokes, as I've said in the past.

 

Well....that part of you post doesnt resemble a dad joke, nor a chicken pun. Looks like sniping and bellyaching. That's the neat thing about this forum....everybody has a different perspective

Carry on....I got my laugh for the day....I hope you find yours😉

 

To put things in perspective: A few years ago we were talking underboob. Now it’s chicken puns.

Come on guys.

 

I liked the underboob, waaayyy better.

 

Bellyaching? Just pointing out self aggrandizement and that what he did was no more or less effective than complaining on a web board. And I wanted to make sure I included both sides do it, no one is better at it than the other. I probably could have said that sailingfun didn't negate every good point on the web board, but I'd hope that's assumed.

Separate discussion: What I've noticed (after reading some poignant remarks from psychologists on it discussing different types of workers) is "positive people" NEED everyone around them to be positive with them or you get cast out. For a guy like me that tries to be moderate, angry when I should be/happy when I should be, and not let history try to color the present, only to inform, its bizarre watching you guys snap. Positive people do no better or worse than negative people or neutral people. There's been lots of studies on it to investigate what "power of positivity" is and if it's real. Spoiler, it's just a book.

In any case, I find my laugh (or whatever that means) whenever I derail a discussion on here that bursts into jokes. I honestly feel like you all take this strangely seriously but you snap out of it when someone tells the right joke, and I wanna be that guy.

A lot of you make good points, sailing fun makes lots of them, but the dogma and characterizations on here are too much. But I'm not saying anything that wasn't first said by smart people on here. Management is the enemy, not fellow pilots, and even management aren't evil hell spawn. That's SWAP delays into NYC. We've got some section 6 stuff to consider, probably not soon but it'll happen, just hope everyone knows I'm here to participate and be a part of a great future. I think that is probably what 95% of us are here for.

 

Interesting....from my perspective if you substituted "negative people" into the sentence I could agree. Chit Chat comes to mind. Just because you tangentially cited some unnamed poignant psychology study does no more to buttress your argument than the climate change arguments etc etc

Again...it's that perspective thing

And, I vote to bring back underboob before more chicken jokes

 

I mean it is football season after all...

Go kitties!
