This sounds familiar. Wasn't you I was with, was it? It was a low probability of success situation anyway considering the bruiser of a dude she was with. I just get bored easily.

What's your deal? Do you really think PTC isn't progressive and inclusive? Ever live their? It's the opposite of that....geez...
Nah. Don't need to. I work with plenty of folks that do and that have to get a good enough sense of the general vibe and know it's not for me. Besides, my parents both grew up in and around Atlanta. I've got enough family in the area that I could never live it down if I moved to PTC.

Yes, it just rams the patriarchy down our throat and must be stopped! And don't assume my gender selection either!

I see, I guess I'd recommend getting first hand experience with a pilot base, and/or a town and it's residents before I start posting negative comments about them...but maybe that's just me. But you continue with your jab, jab, jab at ATL pilots and PTC residents, maybe you can work through whatever it is that's bugging you.

Wait. So your interest was in the manly man she was with? 😆

BINGO !

Honestly, I would explain why except I got time off last time I did that. Ask some of the few EAL guys (all SCABs I believe) you hired after the strike ... they probably remember.

I'd be surprised if DAL hired any EAL scabs. I believe both the union and management at DAL were on the same page with that(no scabs)...maybe now too. I believe most of the EAL scabs went to either UAL or the FAA. While we're on the subject of UAL scabs, I jumpsat on a UAL 727 way back when, and the Capt and F/E couldn't have been nicer to me. The Capt. welcomed me onboard and introduced me to the F/E then said, The F/O is a scab, we don't talk to him. The F/O never said a word the whole leg. It was something. I also remember all the UAL pilots carried "clicker" noise makers. When they saw a scab in the crew room or terminal they would start clicking the noise maker. Sometimes there would be a dozen clickers going.

Really? Could that be true? But "Freezingflyboy" says ATL ATC uses "dixie" because "the problem lies with the ATL pilots and their...specialness." He couldn't be wrong now could he?
