34 minutes to go until Age-65 zero hour!

I was 10 numbers away from holding a solid regular line every month on the 767 when it passed 5 years ago and projected to move up in category enough to cross the threshold. Age 65 knocked me back 17 numbers on the projection and back into reserve.

Granted a lot of things have happened since then as well, but that was the first blow of backsliding.

Holding a line on the 767 5 years ago as a new hire? Were you even 30? :confused:

Wouldn't they be? :confused: I'm sure there are plenty of CAL/UAL guys who are envious. CAL work rules are so terrible there are 737 CAs are bidding back to WB FO for better QOL. Heck, there are SWA guys looking to come to DAL.

Well, if others are going to compare us to Fedex etc. In the interest of fairness, why can't Sailing or someone else compare us with the other side of the spectrum? Are they not both valid?

So my Captain and I were making fun of how long it's taken to open the new restaurants in A & B in ATL. We were saying they should be open... for Spring Break!!!

Then I got curious and I asked the workers at the airport and they said, proudly, "in two to three months!" From now? "Yes."

So it only takes seven months to open one restaurant in a food court in an airport.

Failport.

Getting Qdoba perfect is no task that should be rushed, ftb. Beautiful, sweet, naked burrito perfection is no laughing matter and takes time.

On my sits, I'll be over there putting out the vibe.

Which is odd, why hasn't the Varsity been finished in C? That should take about 10 hours to get that place up and running.

Meh. I'd be happy if they could get the line moving at Dunkin. They really need a "coffee only" lane. And I don't mean "fussy coffee".

You get coffee, and if you ask nice, cream and sugar, you pay your $2, and move on.

You couldn't find any other pic of someone blowing a bubble?

I'm sorry you feel singled out, but I feel I'm a fair moderator. Do I miss things? Absolutely. But if our users utilize the "report post" function then a mod will see it, & if it violates TOS they'll take proper action. Find a pic of a bubble that doesn't look like adult content and I'll leave it alone.


Over-censoring... seriously Johnso, it was a bubble, no matter what it LOOKED like. That was the humor of it. Dissappointed...

Just curious, which would those be?
