OK L&GAD experts....Mayday....I need some help. I know I have just seen emails on how to change flight times when deadheading on a Connection Carrier, but can't find them. I've looked everywhere I can think of, but can't find it. I need to change the times for a Connection deadhead. The online form in Icrew says it is only for Delta dispatched flights. It was a scheduled DH on my line. Is that where I change it, or do I have to call Scheduling or Crew Tracking. Help!

Had a similar problem. DCI DH flight time error was going to screw me out of over an hour of GS pay. If I recall, I called and was directed to use the flight time change form found on the left side of the initial DeltaNet page regardless of it not being DAL dispatched. There is a section for comments that can be used to shed light on any confusion. Hope that helps.

6. (on the phone) Yeah, she got the epidural, makes everything easy.
5. You know, my mom said that you should...
4. I'm starting to get a headache and my feet hurt...
3. Hey Doc, why do you use the metric system? 10cm? Really? Why?
2. What do you want to do about dinner? <- Grasshopper?
1. Man Up

11. Honey, I just got a great deal on a Thighmaster I found online. Your thighs will look great in no time. :D

12. Your poor nurse. With that fake rack of hers, she'll never get to experience the true joy of breastfeeding.

After 13 hours of more less sitting there, it only took my wife 12 minutes and only 5 contractions to push him out. She is a freaking hoss.

He just looked up at me and said with his eyes "yeah... these are mine now."

Congrats!


It's pretty cool experience I have number 2 due in June. Love everything about except the expense, going to cost roughly $6750 in delta dollars with the gold (premiums approx. 3000 yearly and family ded. 3750).

The only other downfall is that I have been at the end of the bed in the coyote position for the better part of a month and she still has 4 more to go.

Here's to late night APC feeding sessions.

Congrats again

Actually, those drugs scare me. Before childbirth my wife had a photographic memory and could literally memorize a 700 page book almost verbatim (she speaks 5 languages and can get by in another 2). After childbirth, she's more "normal." At least she doesn't show me up on my aircraft's memory items any more. We can't figure out if it was the drugs, or lack of sleep. But, she's still hot, so who cares?

Kids and lack of sleep. It's amazing what those little suckers do to ya :eek:

I was in the room and standing for all three. Kind of cool and simply amazing. I'm not squeamish though. Would have loved being a general surgeon.

Congrats 80, sounds like you just moved up a number!

Bar is right about the view. Something just tells you her stuff will never be the same again. :(

13. Could I get a chair over here? I've been hunched over for an hour and my back is killing me...
