But you know I was in bwi the other day and they have a new rule of no shutting the door til 3 min prior. So we waited til 3 prior to shut the door but it took 2 min to move the jetway and get everyone back into position. So if I call and they say hold the push I'll call you back, we are late. But we could've been out five minutes ago.
Btw, if they know when the airplane is moving why aren't we using that for the out time anyways?

Sometimes I drive home on the PCH thru Malibu to avoid the rush hour on the highway. I often see local talent. Funniest thing ever, though, was driving home on a Friday night. Stopped at a stop light, looked over at the car next to me and it was Gary Busey totally stoned and hair spiking in all directions. He sees my uni epaulets and thinks I'm some sort of chief of police or something. He snapped to and put his hands at 9 and 12 on the steering wheel.
LA. It's so weird I love it.

Why do I feel like I've just been accused of theft?

You have been. Just wait for threats of discipline up to and including termination. Expect some hostages come next contract. My guess our days of constructive engagement are over and the Minnesota mentality will be the rule of the day.

You know what I actually see a lot, doors closed, ramp ready... Flight deck door still open.
But you know I was in bwi the other day and they have a new rule of no shutting the door til 3 min prior. So we waited til 3 prior to shut the door but it took 2 min to move the jetway and get everyone back into position. So if I call and they say hold the push I'll call you back, we are late.

There is no other reason to release a memo like this other that to reduce employee costs.

Off topic, but what happened to our SEA-HND route?

Landed in SNA yesterday, stopped at gate, shut down, and accomplished the shut down checklist. Had the new ACARS onboard. It didn't show us in till five minutes later as that is how long it took for either a cargo door or 2L to open. The person who keeps putting out these memos needs to return to the line.
Numerous radio calls to ops got no results. After getting off the jet I looked for the Station Manager; not there. I left her a voice mail requesting a return call. Nope, she never called. Filled out an FCR and got no response.
