Silver Slips dropping in SLC.

I don't recall ever seeing that before.

(Not interested. I'm busy enjoying real life. Go for it, you go getters you).

Yeah, there was a lot. And I didn't see a single person pick up more than one in my category. The most junior at 16xxx even got one.

I saw it happen last summer in July and August too. I would love to know their rationale when they decide to use them.

Every single trip in Open time after the 23rd was silver in both ATL 320 A & B. Every single one.

There must be a ton of “Full” reserve pilots for that to happen. Never seen it either.

But hey, we’re properly staffed, right? RIGHT?

Pick up a 3 day SS and drop a regular 3 day. Frees up more time to enjoy real life. Or just work 3 more days for the same pay.

Fascinating.

You are, by far, the highest "likes' poster I've ever seen since this "feature" turned on.

You're one to watch. And I'd never noticed a single post you made before this. (Don't take this personally. Poster myopia is a thing.)

Respect, and I mean that sincerely. Marshaling support on social media is a non-trivial accomplishment. (I've tried, and failed, to start "rumors" at 4 different airlines over 3 decades...and failed. Just for LOLS)

Everything is in motion. Always.

Lmao! I was curious so I peeked (you can see who liked posts)... forum member Beernutt went back and "liked" almost all the posts he's ever made. Including ones made long before the likes became a thing.

I agree it's is a silly and unnecessary feature for a forum like this.

He’s doing great things here. I felt he is underappreciated.
