I'd always wear something that would be jumpseat legal in case you have to go that route as a backup.

 

With the possibility of new pilots joining us, I propose a new video link on APC to help them learn the ropes. We could call it YouNoob. Some suggested channels:

The Bucking Bar Channel - MD88 engineering triumphs...YouNoob's shortest video series.

The Buzzpat Channel - Want a successful life?...pick a hot wife. The how to guide.

The Jesse Channel - A photo album.

The 80ktsClamp Channel - How to successfully blame the other pilot for farting in a two man cockpit. Coming soon: The Magic Carpet Ride...a how to guide.

The Forgot To Bid Channel - A guide to bidding.

The Denny Crane Channel - Finding fulfillment...even though you'll never be DennyCrane!

The Tsquare Channel - A tutorial of putting people on your ignore list.

The FIIGMO Channel - A guide to the Fox News Channel.

The Delta I.T. Channel - Under construction.

The Timbo Channel - The art of enjoying days off.

The Purple Drank Channel - Success through positive thinking.

The Slowplay/Alfaromeo Channel - How to spin a bad checkride into a good thing by blaming the instructor then redefining the grading system. $1 premium charge to remove the "DPA Sucks" banner ad.

The Carl Spackler Channel - Static and hot air. $1 premium charge to remove the "ALPA Sucks" banner ad.

YouBoob - Self explanatory.

The Asiana Channel - A hand flying guide. Too soon?

Granted, I've only been here 6 years, but the Aug bid Is the strangest I've seen. Many categories with lines going almost to the plug. Some with Top half of reserves coming from senior 1/3 of category. It's pure bedlum!! Note...when res gaur. Hits 80, reverse all bidding logic to get what u want.

 

I've got the worst line I've had in 5 years. I've never had an "avoid" denied.

 

On the other hand, in my category they just put 41% of the category on rsv in August. Junior lineholder is over 1000 numbers senior to me!

 

I guess you haven't been paying attention to what the "folks paying thousands of $$" are wearing........

 

Exactly! It's chaos...totally unpredictable.

 

So my $200 custom fit AG jeans from Nordstrom would be inferior to $15 slacks from Walmart in 1st class?

 

Sure I have. But that guy isn't US. We're flying for free, and we're the hired help eating at the count's table in this scenario. Holy cr ap, just shave off the soul patch, put on shoes with laces, and put on your big boy slacks and shirt and look above average for your free ride. It's 1000 times less hassle than wearing the hat and 100 times more obvious. And guess what, no one but you and some fashionistas on Bravo channel knows your jeans are $200, everyone else sees "jeans".

no disrespect intended, but some questions just don't need to be asked or pressed-to-test when you're no longer working as a cashier for McD's. Hrmmm, it's like this: you can wear your uniform hat a zillion times and build a hundred bridges, but if you once show up dressed like a teenager for non-rev or screw one goat, you're a goat-f*cker.

I'm pretty sure that's how that saying goes, at least that's how we interpreted it in the mil.

 

lol... that's a bit like admitting you drink Zima. Flt Att?
